Description

This two-bedroom semi-detached house presents a unique opportunity for investors and first-time buyers seeking a refurbishment project. Offered with vacant possession and no upper chain, the property serves as a blank canvas ready for modernization and personal touches. The accommodation spans three floors, featuring an entrance hall, cloakroom, and a kitchen/diner on the ground floor. On the first floor, you will find a spacious main bedroom along with a bright living room that benefits from a balcony. The second floor includes another double bedroom, a shower room, and a former roof terrace that has been enclosed to create a useful conservatory or sunroom. With the necessary planning permissions, there is potential to convert this space into a third bedroom, enhancing the property’s value. Externally, the house includes a small enclosed courtyard garden and a carport for off-road parking. While the property requires refurbishment and updating, it offers excellent potential for those looking to create a modern home while adding their own style.

56out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This two-bedroom semi-detached house presents a solid opportunity for investors or buyers looking for a project. With an asking price of £250,000, it's competitively priced at £264/sqf, which is 10.1% below the local average of £294/sqf, making it an attractive entry point for those looking to acquire and improve. However, the all-in costs are tight against local benchmarks, with the total projected investment reaching around £310,000, which could limit the margin for profit in the current market.

Despite needing extensive refurbishment throughout, the property benefits from a modern kitchen and functional shower room, which can help ease the renovation process. The living areas and bedrooms, while dated, offer a blank canvas for personalization. The garden requires significant attention, but this also provides an opportunity to create an inviting outdoor space. With no upper chain, this home is ready for a quick sale, allowing a savvy buyer to hit the ground running on their refurbishment plans.

Key opportunities

  • Scope to convert the enclosed sun room into a third bedroom, adding further value.
  • Opportunity to modernize dated interiors and create a personalized living space.
  • A good location for investment with no upper chain facilitating a quick sale.

Key risks

  • Moderate renovation scale required, with potential damp and wear noted throughout the property.
  • All-in costs are tight versus local benchmarks, which may limit profit margins.
