53out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This two-bedroom terraced house presents a solid opportunity for buyers looking to invest in a renovation project in a desirable location. Priced at £275,000, the property is competitively set at £336/sqf, significantly below the local average of £381/sqf. While the asking price offers a chance to acquire a home affordably, the necessary renovations are substantial. The interior shows signs of wear and is in need of full modernisation, including dated fittings in the kitchen and poor overall condition, which highlights the extent of the project ahead.

The property boasts considerable potential for transformation, allowing you to reconfigure the layout and enhance the living space, with possibilities for extensions subject to planning approvals. This flexibility, coupled with its chain-free status, makes it an appealing prospect for those eager to create a tailored family home. However, potential buyers should be aware that the all-in costs, estimated at £375,000 when factoring in renovation expenses, place the investment above current local benchmarks, which could impact your budget and renovation plans.

Key opportunities

  • Significant potential to modernise and improve the property's layout and character.
  • Opportunity for extension to increase living space, subject to planning permissions.
  • Chain-free sale allows for a quicker transaction process.

Key risks

  • Stripped interiors and a £80,000–£120,000 works budget make this a full-gut programme, not a refresh.
  • Expect total exposure near £375,000 when purchase and the £100,000 refurb range are added together — around 17% above what similar-sized stock commands locally today; we have not assumed a post-renovation resale figure.
