Description
This two-bedroom semi-detached house in Harlington offers around 665 sq ft of accommodation, with a straightforward layout and scope for updating. The ground floor has an entrance lobby, a front-facing sitting room and a kitchen-diner at the rear, where glazed doors open onto the garden. Upstairs are a principal bedroom, a second bedroom and a bathroom with a bath, basin and WC.
Outside, the front garden is laid to lawn and a driveway provides off-road parking alongside the house. The rear garden has lawn, planting and paved seating areas arranged over different levels. A detached garage provides additional storage or parking space. The property is offered with no upper chain.

Confidence: MEDIUM
Christian Close offers a usable, light-refresh project in Harlington: dated finishes and older flooring give you room to personalise the interiors, while the established garden, driveway and detached garage add useful appeal. The layered garden also offers scope to clear and reshape the planting and seating areas.
The main drawback is the price. At £275,000, the asking price is about 13% above the local £/sqf average; adding the £8,000–£15,000 refurb range leaves the purchase-plus-works cost stretched against the local benchmark for this floor area. That comparison is against current local average value, not a forecast of the finished home’s value, so the numbers make this a weak opportunity at the present asking price.
Key opportunities
- Refresh the dated wall finishes and flooring to give the usable interior a more individual feel.
- Clear and reorganise the mature planting and weathered paved areas to make better use of the established, multi-level garden.
- Make use of the driveway and detached garage for parking, storage or workspace.
Key risks
- At the current asking price, adding the likely refurbishment spend leaves the total purchase-and-works cost high relative to the local benchmark for this floor area.
- Factor in roughly £286,500 all-in — £11,500 of works on top of the asking price — roughly 15% above what comparable floor area achieves locally in current condition; we have not assumed a post-renovation resale figure.
