Description

This three-bedroom semi-detached house presents an exciting refurbishment opportunity, positioned on a prime corner plot with a desirable south-facing rear garden. The property is offered with no onward chain and comes with existing architectural drawings, indicating significant potential for transformation into a modern family home, subject to planning permissions. The proposed ground floor layout envisions an open-plan living and dining area, seamlessly connecting to a spacious kitchen and a dedicated family room that opens to the outdoors through flush-folding doors. Additionally, it features a separate formal living room, an integrated garage, and a conveniently located central WC. On the first floor, the layout accommodates three generous double bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a study area that could serve as an additional bedroom. The highlight is the principal bedroom suite, complete with a private dressing area and en-suite shower room. The property currently comprises well-proportioned accommodation, including an open-plan living and dining room, kitchen, three bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a separate WC. With substantial side plot space for future development, this home is an excellent investment opportunity in a sought-after location. Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the potential this property holds.

Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This three-bedroom semi-detached house presents a notable refurbishment opportunity, particularly with its potential for extension on a generous corner plot. While the asking price of £140,000 is higher than the local average at £161/sqf compared to £122/sqf, the property offers a good location and a well-maintained garden, which adds appeal. Inside, the home features dated interiors, including older kitchen and bathroom fittings, but this allows for significant scope to modernize and add value. The proposed plans suggest a fantastic open-plan layout that could transform the existing space into a contemporary family home.

However, the renovation costs, estimated between £50,000 and £100,000, push the all-in expenditure to between £215,000 and £240,000, which is considerably higher than the implied local average value of £106,428. This stretches the economics of the project, making it less favorable when compared to local benchmarks for similar properties. While there is potential here, prospective buyers should carefully consider the financial implications before proceeding, especially given the higher asking price relative to local values.

Key opportunities

  • Substantial potential for extension supported by existing architectural plans.
  • Well-maintained garden that could be improved for enhanced outdoor living space.
  • Opportunity to modernize dated interiors and create a contemporary family home.

Key risks

  • High asking price relative to local £/sqf may limit future value growth.
  • Purchase plus works may take you to around £215,000 before you finish, with refurbishment in the region of £75,000, leaving a gap of around 50% versus area norms for this sqft; post-works value sits outside our data.
