Confidence: MEDIUM

This semi-detached house presents a significant renovation opportunity, ideally located in a cul-de-sac close to local amenities and Sheffield City Centre. With a guide price of £50,000, it offers a lower entry point compared to the local average of £124/sqf. However, it's important to note that the asking price is still above local benchmarks, making it a less attractive option in terms of value.

The house itself requires considerable internal modernisation, with dated decor and wear observed throughout. The living areas, bedrooms, and kitchen all show signs of needing updates, while the garden also requires maintenance and improvement. The exterior appears sound, but there are potential structural concerns noted, which should be carefully assessed. This project could benefit from a comprehensive refurb, with a renovation budget estimated between £40,000 and £80,000, but prospective buyers should be aware that the all-in costs may stretch beyond what the local market suggests as a reasonable investment.

Key opportunities

  • Potential for extensive internal refurbishment and modernisation.
  • Opportunity to enhance the garden for outdoor living.
  • Off-street parking adds convenience and value.

Key risks

  • Asking price plus renovation costs may exceed local market value, impacting profitability.
  • Plan on something close to £110,000 before you finish, with refurbishment in the region of £60,000, about 60% ahead of typical local benchmarks for this size; post-works value sits outside our data.
