Description

Offered through the Modern Method of Auction, this four-bedroom detached house occupies a substantial plot and is marketed with approved planning permission for an additional four-bedroom detached house and a detached bungalow. The existing home extends to approximately 1,897 sq ft and has a hall, two main reception rooms, a further rear-facing reception room, fitted kitchen, utility room, ground-floor shower room and WC. Upstairs are four double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The house is described as requiring modernisation and could be refurbished for continued occupation while the approved development is progressed. The plot and existing accommodation may also suit a purchaser looking to use the house without pursuing the additional builds. Buyers should review the planning documents and auction information pack, and note that the Modern Method of Auction includes a reservation agreement, fee and stated completion timescale. Bairstow Eves, Mansfield Woodhouse, is marketing the property.

52out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This is a substantial detached house with spacious reception areas, four bedrooms and a generous plot, offering a clear light-refurbishment canvas: refresh the decoration and flooring, then decide how far to update the older kitchen and bathroom finishes. The established trees, hedges, gated access and hardstanding add to the appeal, while the listing also states that planning permission has been approved for two additional dwellings; that permission and its feasibility should be checked carefully.

At £380,000, the asking price is around 4.3% above the local £/sqf average, so price is not a particular advantage. With the indicated refurbishment, purchase-plus-refurb costs also look tight against local benchmarks, making the development potential important to the overall case rather than a guaranteed margin. The house appears generally intact in the photos, though localised render deterioration near the entrance merits inspection.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh dated decoration and flooring across the reception rooms and bedrooms to give the spacious existing home a more contemporary feel.
  • Use the generous plot, gated access and substantial hardstanding to explore the stated approved scheme for an additional detached house and bungalow, subject to verifying the permission and feasibility.
  • Retain the established trees, hedges and outbuildings as part of the setting for the existing home or any considered site layout.

Key risks

  • Localised peeling or damaged-looking render near the front entrance should be inspected and scoped for repair.
