Description
This two-bedroom mid-terrace house on Devon Road has a traditional layout with two reception rooms and a kitchen leading through to a ground-floor bathroom. The listing describes the rooms as spacious and notes natural light throughout. Modernisation and general improvement are required, with the existing layout offering a starting point for refurbishment.
Upney Underground Station is described as within walking distance, and the A13 is nearby. Barking town centre, local shops and schools are also accessible. Resident permit parking is available on the road, according to the listing.
At the rear, the garden provides outdoor space that could be improved. The property is being marketed by Just Moovin in Barking as a two-bedroom home with scope for buyers to update it to their requirements.
WHOTS analysis
Our WHOTS verdict
An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
46out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £325,000, the guide price is below the local £/sqf benchmark, making this a relatively inexpensive entry point for a buyer looking to create value. The two reception rooms, two bedrooms and traditional layout provide a useful canvas, while the natural light and rear garden add to the scope for a tailored redesign. The visible work is substantial: finishes are worn or damaged in several areas, the bathroom ceiling and walls are particularly deteriorated, and the garden needs clearing and improvement.
The overall score is weak because the project economics look tight: purchase plus the estimated refurbishment midpoint comes to about £395,000, above the local average benchmark of about £356,000 before fees. That comparison is not a renovated-value estimate, but it does mean a buyer should scrutinise the budget and likely end value rather than rely on the low entry price alone.
Key opportunities
- Rework the two-reception layout and generous rooms to create a more cohesive living and dining space.
- Replace the dated kitchen and substantially deteriorated bathroom finishes as part of a coordinated interior update.
- Clear and redesign the rear garden, turning its paved area and open space into a more usable outdoor setting.
Key risks
- The damaged wall and ceiling finishes across several areas, especially the bathroom, plus kitchen deterioration make this a substantial works programme rather than a cosmetic refresh; the £55,000–£85,000 range needs careful budgeting.
- Purchase plus the refurbishment midpoint is above the local average-value benchmark, leaving limited headroom on that comparison before fees.
