Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This three-bedroom detached bungalow in Umberleigh offers a solid opportunity to create value through renovation. While the asking price of £350,000 is below the local average at £272/sqf, the overall project economics are tight when considering the all-in costs of around £410,000 against local benchmarks. The property features spacious living areas and stunning countryside views, making it an appealing canvas for modernization.

The interior shows signs of wear throughout, with dated finishes in the living areas, bedrooms, and kitchen. However, the ample parking, good-sized rooms, and attractive gardens present a great chance for someone looking to personalise the space. With a renovation range of £40,000 to £80,000, this medium-scale project allows potential buyers to envision their own updates, tailoring the home to their tastes while capitalising on the beautiful surroundings.
