Confidence: MEDIUM

This three-bedroom semi-detached home boasts stunning sea views and a promising position in the desirable village of Llysfaen. While the property is in need of modernisation, it offers a fantastic opportunity for buyers to put their own stamp on it. The living room and bedrooms show signs of wear and require a fresh decor, while the kitchen is functional but dated. The garden has potential for landscaping, adding value to the outdoor space that already provides breathtaking coastal views.

The asking price of £169,950 is reasonable compared to the local average, coming in at £205/sqf versus £209/sqf. However, the overall economics present some challenges, with all-in costs projected to be stretched against local benchmarks for this floor area. Renovation costs are estimated between £40,000 and £80,000, which, when added to the purchase price, could leave the investment margin tighter than desirable. Yet, with no onward chain and the property’s unique features, this home presents a worthwhile project for those ready to embrace its potential.

Key opportunities

  • Transform dated interiors into a modern living space tailored to personal taste.
  • Enhance the outdoor area with landscaping to fully utilise the impressive sea views.
  • Capitalize on the property's location and views to create a desirable family or investment home.

Key risks

  • The all-in costs may be stretched against local benchmarks, impacting financial returns on investment.
