Description

This detached bungalow in the sought-after village of Old Basing presents an exciting opportunity for renovation and potential development.

Confidence: LOW

This detached bungalow in the popular village of Old Basing presents a significant renovation opportunity. While the property requires full modernisation, it offers a blank canvas for potential buyers to create a personalized living space. The spacious garden and the overall layout of the home provide the chance for an extension or reconfiguration, allowing for the possibility of increasing both the living area and potential value.

However, it’s important to note that the condition is quite poor, with dated interiors throughout and a kitchen and bathroom that are particularly in need of attention. The extensive work required, including stripping back to bare bones, will demand a considerable investment, with renovation costs estimated between £100,000 and £200,000. The lack of usable floor area means we can't assess the value against local £/sqf figures, but the guide price of £465,000 is positioned within reach compared to other listings in the area. Just remember that bids can elevate during the sale process, potentially pushing the final price higher than the guide.

Key opportunities

  • The spacious garden allows for potential landscaping or extension.
  • The layout offers flexibility for reconfiguration to suit modern living needs.
  • Substantial renovation can enhance the property's appeal and value significantly.

Key risks

  • Stripped interiors and a £100,000–£200,000 works budget make this a full-gut programme, not a refresh.
  • The overall poor condition could present unforeseen issues during renovation.
  • High renovation costs may exceed initial estimates and impact the project's feasibility.
