Description
This three-bedroom Victorian mid-terraced house has two reception rooms and a private rear garden. The front reception rooms retain high ceilings and period features, while the rear kitchen and dining area is described as needing full refurbishment. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a three-piece bathroom. The listing also notes potential to extend into the loft, subject to planning permission, which would need to be checked independently. The property is chain free and is within walking distance of Downhills Park, Lordship Recreation Ground and Bruce Castle Park, as well as local cafes, pubs and bars.

Grade DWeak opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
This Victorian terrace has a useful starting point: bright, usable reception rooms with bay windows and period details, plus three bedrooms and a private garden. The stripped-back kitchen/dining area is the clearest value-add project, with scope to refurbish it and make the rear of the house work better; the garden and weathered frontage also offer practical improvement opportunities. The stated loft potential is subject to planning permission and has not been verified.
At £650,000, the asking price is broadly in line with the local £/sqf benchmark, so the price is reasonable rather than a standout bargain. The economics are less compelling: purchase plus the £20,000–£40,000 renovation range looks tight against local benchmarks, so a project buyer will need to manage costs carefully. Overall, this is a workable renovation canvas, but the numbers temper the opportunity.
Key opportunities
- Refurbish the stripped-back kitchen/dining area, including making good the walls and finishing the floor.
- Improve the private garden by addressing uneven paving and overgrowth while making the most of its established planting.
- Retain and complement the bay windows and period detailing in the bright reception rooms; loft potential is subject to planning permission and unverified.
Key risks
- Visible weathering to the frontage, including worn masonry and peeling or uneven paintwork, warrants inspection and maintenance.
