Description

This three-bedroom semi-detached house is set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Upton, within walking distance of St Joseph's School, Overchurch School, Upton Convent and the village. Moreton Spur provides access to the motorway network, with supermarkets, coastal walks and countryside also nearby. The ground floor has a reception hall with a boiler and cloak cupboard, a dual-aspect living room opening to a dining area, and a separate kitchen. The plot is described as offering scope to extend, subject to obtaining the necessary permissions. A conservatory provides access to the rear garden, which has a lawn, fruit trees and shrubs. There is also a detached garage, previously used as a workshop, and off-road parking for several vehicles. Upstairs are two double bedrooms, a third bedroom and a shower room with a separate WC. The property is offered with no onward chain and is described as requiring full renovation, making it a project for a buyer considering refurbishment and the potential to rework or extend the accommodation, subject to verification.

55out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This three-bedroom semi has a clear renovation canvas: spacious living and dining areas, a kite-shaped plot with parking, and a generous garden with established planting. The visible interiors are dated, giving a buyer scope to refresh the finishes and modernise the kitchen; the older conservatory and detached garage are also worth checking as part of the project. Its position near schools, Upton Village and local routes adds to the appeal, and the listing describes potential to extend subject to permissions.

The numbers are middling rather than compelling because the asking price is reasonable enough, yet £35,000 of quoted works still lifts all-in spend towards £270,000, about 9% ahead of typical local benchmarks for this size. Not necessarily a deal-breaker for a project buyer, but it caps the headline score.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated interiors and kitchen to create a more contemporary family home.
  • Make use of the kite-shaped plot, driveway parking and established garden; the listing also describes scope to extend, subject to permissions.
  • Explore the detached garage as a workshop or useful ancillary space, subject to its condition.

Key risks

  • The conservatory and detached garage look older and need condition checks.
