Description

Charters Estate Agents are pleased to present this three-bedroom terraced house, an excellent opportunity for first-time buyers, landlords, or families seeking more space. The property requires modernisation throughout, allowing new owners to tailor the home to their own tastes. Upon entering through a UPVC front door, you are greeted by an entrance hallway leading to a spacious lounge at the front of the house. The hallway continues to a kitchen equipped with fitted cupboards and space for appliances, which opens out to a generous garden through UPVC doors. The property also features a shared alley providing rear access to the garden. On the first floor, there are two large double bedrooms and a good-sized single bedroom. The bathroom and separate W.C. are separated by a stud wall, offering potential for conversion to suit individual needs. Off-road parking is available at the front of the property. This home is priced for a quick sale and offers no forward chain. Located in a popular residential area of Havant, the property is conveniently situated near local amenities, schools, and leisure facilities. The nearby town centre offers a variety of shops, cafés, and restaurants, while excellent transport links make surrounding areas easily accessible.

Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This three-bedroom terraced house in Havant presents a solid opportunity for first-time buyers or professionals looking to expand their rental portfolios. Priced at £260,000, the asking figure is slightly below the local average of £335/sqf, making it a reasonable entry point into the market. The property features a generous living room and a large garden, both of which offer great potential for enhancement and personalisation. However, it does require modernisation throughout, including updates to the kitchen and bathroom, which are currently dated and in need of refurbishment.

While the location is good and amenities are nearby, the overall economics present a challenge. With an all-in cost projected at around £320,000 after renovations, this figure is stretched compared to local benchmarks, leaving little margin for error in the project scope. Therefore, while the property has appealing aspects, prospective buyers should be mindful of the financial implications of the renovation work required, particularly given the medium scale of the project and the potential for costs to escalate during refurbishment.

Key opportunities

  • Large garden with potential for landscaping and improvements
  • Generous living space suitable for contemporary redesign
  • Opportunity to modernise and add personal touches throughout

Key risks

  • Renovation costs may exceed initial estimates, impacting overall budget against local property values
  • Worth allowing for £320,000 before you finish, with refurbishment in the region of £60,000, about 18% ahead of typical local benchmarks for this size. Finished value after works is not modelled here.
