Description

This seven-bedroom Edwardian semi-detached house in Potternewton is offered as a full renovation project and is being marketed to cash buyers. Its accommodation is arranged over three floors, with a large entrance hall and three reception rooms on the ground floor, as well as a kitchen, bathroom and access to a cellar. The cellar has three separate rooms, with any change of use or conversion subject to the necessary consents and regulations. The first floor has four double bedrooms and a further bathroom, while three more double bedrooms occupy the second floor. Period features described in the listing include stained glass, solid wood flooring and original detailing. Front and rear gardens are also included. The property offers scope to restore and update a substantial period home, with the extent and feasibility of any additional cellar use to be checked.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

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

44out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This is a substantial Edwardian project with real character to work with: seven bedrooms, three reception rooms, original fireplaces, stained glass, timber floors and decorative joinery. The £90,000–£160,000 works range reflects a full-scale transformation, with scope to restore the period details, renew the visibly worn kitchen and bathroom, and bring the overgrown gardens back into use. The large opening and damaged fabric at the upper-floor roof slope need investigation as part of planning the work.

Key opportunities

  • Restore the Edwardian character, including original fireplaces, stained glass, timber floors and decorative joinery.
  • Rework the substantial accommodation across seven bedrooms and three reception rooms to suit modern living.
  • Transform the overgrown front and rear gardens, while exploring further use of the three cellar rooms subject to consents and regulations.

Key risks

  • Extensive deterioration across several rooms, plus a large opening and damaged fabric at the upper-floor roof slope, needs investigation and repair planning.
  • The £90,000–£160,000 works range makes this a full-gut programme rather than a cosmetic refresh; budget and programme need to allow for widespread finishes, flooring, kitchen, bathroom and garden work.
