45out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This three-bedroom terraced home on Upper Fant Road presents a solid opportunity for buyers looking for a spacious property in good overall condition. With a modern kitchen, well-maintained bathroom, and generous living areas, this home is ideal for first-time buyers or families. The large garden is a standout feature, offering ample outdoor space for entertaining or potential extensions, subject to planning consent.

However, the asking price of £325,000 translates to £412/sqf, which is notably above the local average of £359/sqf, marking it as a dear option in the current market. While the property is in good shape and ready for immediate living, the economics of this listing present a limitation as the renovation estimate is unknown. This may impact future value creation, so potential purchasers should consider the price carefully against local benchmarks before proceeding.
