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

76out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £99,950, this is a notably affordable way into the local market: the asking price works out at £125 per sq ft, around a third below the local average. The two-bedroom home has a practical layout, a spacious living room and a useful separate ground-floor WC, with chain-free sale adding to its appeal.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh dated carpets, wallpaper and finishes across the photographed rooms to give the home a more cohesive feel.
  • Update the older fitted kitchen and bathroom to suit a buyer’s style.
  • Make the most of the spacious living room, practical two-bedroom layout and separate ground-floor WC.

Key risks

  • Staining is visible near the base of the rear masonry; its cause is not established and merits checking.
