Description

This two-bedroom semi-detached house offers a fantastic opportunity for renovation and personalisation. Located conveniently close to Barnstaple town centre, the property features spacious accommodation spread over two floors, making it ideal for those looking to create a home tailored to their needs. The entrance hall leads to a generous dining room with a bay window, and a separate living room that provides ample space for relaxation. The kitchen, equipped with basic wall and base units, allows for potential upgrades to enhance functionality. A bathroom with a three-piece suite completes the ground floor layout. Upstairs, the two well-proportioned double bedrooms offer comfortable living spaces, with the first bedroom being particularly spacious. The property also boasts a south-facing garden, predominantly laid to lawn, which presents an opportunity for landscaping and improvement. As an end-of-terrace home, there is useful access alongside the house and potential for off-road parking, subject to necessary permissions. This property is perfect for buyers seeking a project where they can refurbish and modernise to their own specification.

Confidence: LOW

This semi-detached house presents a solid opportunity for renovation enthusiasts looking to transform a dated property into a modern home. With extensive updating needed throughout, from worn carpets and dated décor in the living areas to the basic kitchen units and bathroom suite, the scope for personalisation is significant. The generous room proportions and end-of-terrace position offer added advantages, particularly with potential access for additional off-road parking, subject to permissions.

The garden is a good size and offers the chance for landscaping to create an attractive outdoor space. Located conveniently near Barnstaple town centre, this property is well-positioned for those looking to invest in a project that can be tailored to their specifications. While the asking price of £120,000 is neutral in the current market context, the lack of specific floor area means we cannot compare this directly against local £/sqf averages yet. This property could appeal to buyers willing to embrace the challenge of a medium-scale refurbishment, with renovation costs estimated between £40,000 and £80,000, making it an interesting proposition for those ready to roll up their sleeves.

Key opportunities

  • Extensive renovation scope allowing for personalisation and modernisation.
  • Generous room proportions provide a solid foundation for design improvements.
  • End-of-terrace position with potential for additional off-road parking.

Key risks

  • Medium-scale project requiring a budget of £40,000 to £80,000 for renovations.
  • General wear and the need for updating throughout may require careful assessment of structural elements.
