Confidence: MEDIUM

This five-bedroom semi-detached house on Coombe Lane West presents a unique opportunity for buyers looking to create their dream home in one of Kingston upon Thames' most prestigious locations. Priced at £1,250,000, which is notably below the local average at £602/sqf compared to £701/sqf, this property allows for a savvy acquisition with substantial potential for value creation.

While the interiors are dated and require extensive refurbishment, the characterful features and spacious garden offer a solid foundation for modernization and expansion. The home boasts a welcoming hallway, generous living room, and functional kitchen, all ripe for reconfiguration. With approximately 2,077sqft of space and a substantial garden, there’s plenty of scope to enhance the living experience significantly. However, prospective buyers should be prepared for a heavy project scale, as the interiors will need gutting and a budget of £100,000 to £200,000 for renovations is advisable to realize the full potential of this property.

Key opportunities

  • Substantial expansion potential allows for creative reconfiguration and modernisation.
  • Characterful features throughout provide a charming backdrop for a bespoke renovation.
  • A spacious garden over 70ft deep enhances outdoor living possibilities.

Key risks

  • Stripped interiors and a £100,000–£200,000 works budget make this a full-gut programme, not a refresh.
  • Potential damp issues noted in several areas require careful consideration during renovation.
