Description

Nestled in a desirable cul-de-sac on the outskirts of Cirencester, this mature detached family home presents an excellent opportunity for renovation and extension. The property boasts generous living space across two floors, beginning with a welcoming entrance hall featuring original parquet flooring and a convenient cloakroom/shower room. The spacious sitting room is a highlight, showcasing a fireplace and large picture window that floods the room with natural light, while French doors lead directly to the expansive rear garden. A separate dining room connects to a fitted galley-style kitchen, enhancing the home's functionality. An extension to the side of the house offers a sizeable utility room and adjoining study, which has previously served as an occasional fourth bedroom. This versatile area could easily accommodate various needs, from a home office to a playroom or additional ground-floor accommodation. The first floor comprises three bedrooms, including two spacious doubles and a single with a hand basin, alongside a family bathroom and separate WC. Outside, the property features an attached garage and a substantial rear garden that provides a sense of privacy and ample opportunity for landscaping or further development. There is significant potential for expansion, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions, including the possibility of adding additional accommodation above the garage. This well-positioned family home combines generous proportions with a superb garden and considerable scope for future enhancement.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

50out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This detached house in Stratton offers a solid opportunity for renovation enthusiasts, with a guide price of £575,000 translating to £409/sqf, which is just above the local average of £402/sqf. While the overall renovation economics appear tight, with all-in costs approaching local benchmarks, the well-maintained stone façade and generous garden space stand out as positives. The interior, however, is dated, featuring older decor and fittings that present a clear canvas for improvement.

The property benefits from versatile accommodation, including a spacious living room with direct access to a substantial rear garden, which adds to the appeal. There's potential for further enhancement or extension, subject to the necessary consents, making it attractive for those looking to create their ideal family home. With a well-regarded primary school and community amenities nearby, this home could be transformed into something special with the right vision and investment.

Key opportunities

  • Generous garden space for outdoor enhancements or extensions.
  • Versatile accommodation that can be adapted for various uses, including a potential fourth bedroom.
