Upstairs are two double bedrooms, one with built-in storage and the other with built-in wardrobes, alongside a third bedroom and a family bathroom with a shower, basin and WC. The garage has access from both the front and rear, and provides additional storage or parking space. The property is described as requiring modernisation throughout. Its layout, generous reception space and garden offer scope for a buyer to update the accommodation to suit their needs.

The listing notes transport links to surrounding areas and the wider city.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

53out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This three-bedroom semi has a generous reception space with a bay window and garden connection, plus an attached garage, driveway and a long rear garden. The dated finishes and worn flooring across several visible rooms, along with the overgrown garden, offer a clear medium-scale project to refresh the interiors and bring the outdoor space back into use.

The overall score is 53/100 (D, Weak Opportunity). Floor area is missing, so value against local £/sqf cannot yet be judged; the price/value score is therefore neutral rather than evidence that the asking price is cheap or dear.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh dated wall finishes and worn flooring across the visible interior rooms.
  • Assess the dated kitchen as part of the improvement plan, with replacement an option rather than an established necessity.
  • Clear and landscape the long rear garden, making better use of its space and indoor-outdoor connection.

Key risks

  • The driveway surface appears worn and uneven, so its condition may need closer inspection.
