Grade CPotential opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This three-bedroom semi-detached property presents a compelling opportunity for buyers looking to invest in a home that offers great potential for modernisation. Priced at £190,000, the asking price is notably below the local average at £188/sqf compared to £232/sqf, making it an attractive acquisition for first-time buyers and investors alike.

While the interior is dated and requires refurbishment, the spacious rooms provide an excellent canvas for improvements. The property features a lovely frontage, driveway parking, and a good-sized rear garden, enhancing its appeal. With refurbishment costs estimated between £40,000 and £80,000, prospective buyers should consider that all-in costs are tight compared to local benchmarks. However, the outstanding value at this guide price offers a significant opportunity to create a desirable family home or rental investment.

Key opportunities

  • Spacious interiors that allow for extensive modernisation and personalisation.
  • Good-sized rear garden ideal for outdoor improvements.
  • Lovely frontage and driveway parking enhancing curb appeal.

Key risks

  • Budget tightness due to all-in costs versus local value benchmarks.
