49out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This three-bedroom semi in Evington has a clear blank-canvas appeal: separate living and dining rooms, established front and rear gardens, and a greenhouse and outbuilding give the project useful character and scope. The dated kitchen and bathroom, worn floors and finishes, and localised wall damage create plenty to improve, with £35,000–£65,000 indicated for the works. The listing also mentions possible extension, subject to permissions, though feasibility is not established here.

The score is E (49/100), reflecting a project with solid fundamentals but limited certainty on value: floor area is missing, so the asking price cannot yet be compared with local £/sqf. The £210,000 asking price plus the renovation range gives a simple purchase-and-works span of £245,000–£275,000, before other costs; without floor area or a stated end value, the economics remain difficult to judge.

Key opportunities

  • Rework the separate living and dining rooms and dated kitchen into a more cohesive, modernised living space.
  • Refresh the three-bedroom accommodation with updated finishes, flooring and a contemporary bathroom.
  • Make better use of the established front and rear gardens, greenhouse and outbuilding; the listing also cites extension potential subject to permissions.

Key risks

  • The £35,000–£65,000 works range makes this a substantial, multi-room programme rather than a cosmetic refresh; allow for budget and programme flexibility.
  • Localised peeling and wall damage, with dark discolouration on adjacent carpet, should be investigated as part of the works.
