Description

This four-bedroom detached house was built by Rydon Homes in 1986 and is offered with no onward chain. The ground floor includes an entrance hall with storage, a cloakroom, a formal dining room and a sitting room with a feature fireplace and French doors opening onto the garden. The kitchen and breakfast area connects to a utility and boot room, with access to the rear and the integral double garage. Upstairs are four bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room, alongside a family bathroom. The listing states that the double-glazed windows have been replaced and that the house has gas central heating with a Vaillant boiler in the utility room. Outside, the west-facing garden is described as approximately 65 by 55 feet, with lawn, established shrub borders, a paved patio, summerhouse and shed. A driveway provides parking for two vehicles, and the double garage has power and an electric up-and-over door. The garage may offer scope for conversion, subject to checking feasibility and any required consents. The property is on a development within reach of schools, transport links, country walks and Horsham town centre.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

60out of 100
Grade CPotential opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This is a well-kept four-bedroom detached house with a particularly appealing west-facing garden, double garage and useful family layout. At £431/sq ft, the asking price is 3.5% below the local average, which is a positive; the overall opportunity is moderate, however, with limited headroom against the implied current local average value before fees and other costs. The work looks light and mainly cosmetic: the older-style kitchen and family bathroom, along with some floor coverings, offer scope to refresh the interiors without starting from a major repair project. The garage is also described as suitable for conversion, subject to feasibility and any required consents.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the traditional kitchen and family bathroom finishes and selected floor coverings.
  • Make the most of the private west-facing garden, with its mature planting and paved seating areas.
  • Explore the double garage’s stated conversion potential, subject to feasibility and any required consents.
