Set back from the road behind a block-paved driveway, the home features an integral tandem garage that offers both parking and additional storage. Inside, the layout includes two reception rooms, providing flexibility for separate living and dining areas, along with a kitchen and a rear garden room that connects seamlessly to the garden. The first floor accommodates three bedrooms and a bathroom, all of which require updating but offer well-proportioned spaces. The property boasts a traditional double-fronted façade, with significant potential for enhancement both internally and externally through refurbishment and reconfiguration, subject to necessary consents. The generous enclosed rear garden is mainly laid to lawn and features established planting along with a paved seating area. A timber garden room provides a sheltered spot for relaxation and could be upgraded as a studio, hobby room, or home office.

Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This three-bedroom detached house in Sandiacre offers a fantastic opportunity for buyers looking to modernise a property at a competitive price point. The asking price of £360,000 is notably cheap compared to the local average of £253/sqf, sitting at £225/sqf, allowing for potential value creation through upgrades and renovations. The property features a traditional double-fronted façade and includes two reception rooms, a kitchen with older appliances, and an outdated bathroom, all presenting well to be reimagined into a modern living space. The generous garden, complete with a timber garden room, offers additional scope for enhancement and could serve as a studio or home office space.

While the interior is quite dated and shows signs of wear, the structure of the home appears sound, making this a solid project for those willing to invest in refurbishments. The renovation range of £40,000 to £80,000 could enable you to significantly uplift both the interior and exterior, aligning with current market trends. Although the economics suggest a slight negative margin against local averages, the low entry price combined with the potential for significant improvements makes this listing an appealing prospect for buyers with vision and commitment to modernisation.
