Confidence: LOW

This semi-detached chalet bungalow on St. James Road presents a significant renovation project, ideally suited for those looking to create a unique home. The property is dated throughout, with signs of wear in the living areas, bedrooms, and kitchen, but this offers a blank canvas for prospective buyers to modernize and add value. The outdoor space, including front and rear gardens, presents further opportunities for enhancement, allowing for potential landscaping or expansion.

While the property requires extensive refurbishment with a renovation budget estimated between £80,000 and £120,000, its location near Radley Rail Station and good public transport links enhances its appeal. Although the guide price is set at £320,000, the absence of usable floor area means we can't assess its value against local £/sqf, but it remains a compelling opportunity for those ready to undertake a full-gut programme.

Key opportunities

  • Transform the dated interiors into a modern living space with updated design elements.
  • Enhance the outdoor areas, creating inviting gardens that complement the home.
  • Reconfigure the layout to maximize space efficiency and functionality.

Key risks

  • Stripped interiors and a £80,000–£120,000 works budget make this a full-gut programme, not a refresh.
