Outside, there is a larger-than-average rear garden, with extension potential subject to planning. The property is freehold and connected to mains services.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

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

50out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This is a medium-scale improvement project with two separate living spaces and a larger-than-average rear garden to work with. The dated kitchen and bathroom, older finishes and overgrown garden offer clear scope to refresh the property; the listing also mentions possible extension scope, subject to planning, though feasibility is not established. It is sold with a tenant in situ, so the tenancy terms are part of the purchase picture.

The score is 50/100, grade D: the project has practical value-add potential, but the overall opportunity remains weak on the information available. Floor area is missing, so value against local £/sq ft cannot yet be judged. The renovation range is £30,000–£60,000; the stated £7,200 annual rent and the property’s high flood-risk rating are also important considerations.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated kitchen and bathroom as part of a coordinated interior update.
  • Improve the overgrown rear garden, which is described as larger than average.
  • Make better use of the two separate living spaces; the listing also notes possible extension scope subject to planning.

Key risks

  • The property is in a high flood-risk area.
  • The sale is subject to a periodic assured tenancy, so the tenancy terms and current £7,200 annual rent need to be considered.
