Description

This traditional semi-detached home offers a spacious layout and is primed for renovation, presenting an excellent opportunity to create a wonderful family residence. The property features three reception rooms and three bedrooms, along with a generous garden, making it ideal for family living. Located in a sought-after area of Fallowfield, the home is being sold with no onward chain. With approximately 1,280 square feet of space, the accommodation includes an entrance hall leading to a bay-fronted living room that overlooks the garden. Further along the hallway, you'll find another well-proportioned living room filled with natural light. The dining room at the rear is generously sized, perfect for both dining and lounging, and connects to the kitchen equipped with base and wall units as well as a breakfast bar. The first floor contains two bay-fronted double bedrooms and a single bedroom, all well-sized. A three-piece family bathroom serves the upper level. The exterior features a paved path leading to the front garden and a large, private rear garden surrounded by mature trees and shrubs. This property is in need of full renovation and modernization, but the potential is undeniable.

Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This traditional semi-detached home in Fallowfield presents a substantial renovation opportunity, offering a spacious layout with three reception rooms and three bedrooms, complemented by a generous garden. While the asking price of £330,000 is below the local average at £258/sqf, which makes it an appealing entry point, the condition of the property reveals significant wear and neglect across multiple areas, including the living spaces and the exterior. The kitchen is dated, and the garden requires considerable maintenance, all of which will necessitate a full renovation to unlock its potential.

The economics of this project, however, raise concerns. With renovation costs estimated between £100,000 and £200,000, the all-in cost could reach up to £480,000, which is significantly above the implied local average value of £353,664 for similar properties. This creates a challenging margin that could impact profitability upon completion. Nevertheless, the size and layout of the home, along with its location, provide a strong foundation for a transformative project, making it a worthwhile consideration for those willing to invest in extensive renovations.

Key opportunities

  • Generous garden space that can be revitalized for outdoor living.
  • Three well-proportioned reception rooms providing flexible living spaces.
  • Potential to modernize the layout and create a desirable family home.

Key risks

  • Stripped interiors and a £100,000–£200,000 works budget make this a full-gut programme, not a refresh.
  • Expect total exposure near £480,000 when purchase and the £150,000 refurb range are added together — around 26% above what similar-sized stock commands locally today; we have not assumed a post-renovation resale figure.
