Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This semi-detached dormer bungalow offers a spacious layout with three bedrooms and a newly fitted shower room, making it a solid base for a renovation project. While the interiors are dated, the generous rear garden and ample parking facilities enhance its appeal. The property is located in the popular Etterby area, close to local amenities and just a short drive from Carlisle city centre.

The absence of floor area data means we can't evaluate the price per square foot against local averages, but the asking price of £230,000 is positioned for potential value creation through a refurbishment. With a renovation budget ranging from £40,000 to £80,000, there’s ample opportunity for customization and improvement to meet modern standards, especially in the living areas and kitchen.
