Confidence: MEDIUM

This three-bedroom detached bungalow offers a spacious plot of approximately 0.51 acres in a good location in Hurst, making it an appealing project for buyers looking to create value through refurbishment. While the interior shows signs of age, with dated living areas and a functional but tired kitchen, this presents a canvas for those looking to modernize and enhance the property. The garden is a standout feature, providing good outdoor space for potential improvements.

However, the asking price of £825,000 is slightly above the local average at £575/sqf compared to £536/sqf, which may limit the immediate investment appeal. Additionally, the all-in costs of around £885,000 could feel tight against local benchmarks, suggesting that careful budgeting will be essential for prospective buyers. Overall, while the renovation economics are a bit soft, the size of the plot and the potential to create a desirable home or development opportunity are notable strengths.

Key opportunities

  • Spacious plot of approximately 0.51 acres, ideal for expansion or landscaping.
  • Potential to modernize a dated interior and kitchen, enhancing living space and value.
  • Converted garage providing additional annex space, which can be further developed.

Key risks

  • All-in costs tight compared to local benchmarks may impact financial viability.
  • General wear and tear visible in living areas indicates a need for refurbishment.
