Description

This unique detached house, located on the outskirts of Waberthwaite, presents a remarkable opportunity for those looking to invest in a spacious family home. With four double bedrooms and a variety of living spaces including a snug and lounge, the property offers ample room for customization. The dining kitchen, characterized by its beamed ceiling and traditional Rayburn, serves as the heart of the home, while the upstairs landing provides access to all bedrooms and the family bathroom, which is in need of some updating. Outside, the property boasts a lawned garden to the front and side, a patio area, and gated driveway parking, all set against a backdrop of stunning rural views. Although the home requires modernisation, it holds significant potential for buyers to create their ideal living space.

Confidence: LOW

Croft House presents a unique project opportunity for those looking to create a spacious family home in a picturesque rural setting. While the property shows signs of wear and is in need of significant refurbishment, it boasts spacious rooms, including four double bedrooms, a generous dining kitchen, and a snug that can be tailored to your taste. The guide price of £150,000 is notably below the local average, presenting a potentially attractive entry point for buyers willing to invest in the necessary updates and modernisations.

The dated interiors provide a blank canvas for renovation, allowing you to reimagine the layout and character of the home. With a lovely garden space and stunning views, there's ample opportunity to enhance both the exterior and interior. However, potential buyers should be prepared for a heavy renovation scale, with a budget needed between £100,000 and £150,000 to fully realise the home's potential. This is not a simple cosmetic refresh but a project that will require time and investment to transform Croft House into the family haven it can be.

Key opportunities

  • Spacious four double bedrooms offer flexibility for family living.
  • Generous dining kitchen with potential for modernisation and social gatherings.
  • Unique character features throughout provide a foundation for a personalised renovation.

Key risks

  • Stripped interiors and a £100,000–£150,000 works budget make this a full-gut programme, not a refresh.
