Description
This two-bedroom mid-terrace cottage in Strensall is being sold through the Modern Method of Auction, with no forward chain. The accommodation includes a living room, kitchen, bathroom and two bedrooms. The property is described as requiring modernisation, giving a purchaser scope to update the interiors to their own requirements.
A generous rear garden provides substantial outdoor space. The village has local shops, cafés, pubs, restaurants, schools and community facilities, with road links towards York and the A64 and A1237. York is approximately six miles away. The sale is subject to auction terms, including a reservation period and fee, and the property is currently going through probate.
WHOTS analysis
Our WHOTS verdict
An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
51out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity
Confidence: LOW
This two-bedroom village cottage has a clear cosmetic refresh opportunity: the photographed living spaces and bedrooms have dated finishes, and the older kitchen and coloured bathroom fittings offer scope to modernise. The long rear garden is a distinctive bonus, with a maintained lawn and a rougher section to clear and improve. The estimated works range is £6,500–£14,000, and the available exterior image shows the brick frontage and tiled roof appearing generally intact, though it cannot confirm their hidden condition.
The score is 51/100 (D, Weak Opportunity), with the main limitation being that floor area is missing, so value versus local £/sqf cannot yet be judged. The location and project have appeal, but the available figures do not establish the property’s value after improvements.
Key opportunities
- Refresh the dated living and bedroom finishes, including patterned flooring and older wall coverings.
- Modernise the older fitted kitchen and coloured bathroom fittings.
- Clear and improve the rougher section of the long rear garden while making the most of its maintained lawn.
Key risks
