Confidence: LOW

This two-bedroom flat is a blank canvas for those looking to undertake a substantial renovation project. Located in a desirable area, the property is in shell condition and requires complete modernisation, offering a unique opportunity to reconfigure the space and create a bespoke home tailored to your taste. The presence of a license to alter adds flexibility, allowing for creative design choices that can significantly enhance the flat's layout and functionality.

While the asking price of £225,000 does not allow for a direct £/sqf comparison due to missing floor area, it does present a potential entry point for investors looking to add value through renovation. However, the extensive work required means that buyers should be prepared for a full-gut programme, with renovation costs estimated between £100,000 and £150,000. This scale of investment will be necessary to bring the flat up to modern standards, reflecting the opportunity for significant transformation despite the elevated risk involved in such a project.

Key opportunities

  • Complete reconfiguration of the flat allows for custom layouts and modern amenities.
  • The license to alter provides an opportunity for creative renovations.
  • Potential to significantly increase property value through extensive refurbishment.

Key risks

  • Stripped interiors and a £100,000–£150,000 works budget make this a full-gut programme, not a refresh.
