Confidence: MEDIUM

This spacious three-bedroom terraced home on Kohat Road presents a substantial renovation opportunity for buyers looking to create their ideal living space. While the asking price of £725,000 is competitively set below the local average, the condition of the property reveals significant wear and neglect throughout. The living spaces, bedrooms, and even the kitchen and shower room all require extensive updating, providing a blank canvas for someone willing to undertake a full refurbishment.

However, the economics of this project present a challenge. The all-in costs, estimated at £850,000 when factoring in renovation expenses, exceed local benchmarks for properties of this size, leading to a negative margin against the implied current value. This indicates that while the property has potential, the financials may not align favorably for investors or buyers expecting a strong return. Therefore, while there is ample scope for improvement and the chance to extend the home, prospective buyers should carefully consider the financial implications of such a heavy renovation project.

Key opportunities

  • The spacious layout allows for reconfiguration to enhance the flow and functionality of the living areas.
  • There is potential to modernise the kitchen and shower room, creating a contemporary space tailored to personal tastes.
  • The private rear garden offers an opportunity for landscaping and outdoor improvements.

Key risks

  • Stripped interiors and a £100,000–£150,000 works budget make this a full-gut programme, not a refresh, which could be challenging given the stretched all-in costs compared to local values.
