Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This detached family home in Crownhill presents a significant opportunity for modernisation, set in a good location with spacious rooms. While the property shows general wear and outdated decor throughout, it offers a blank canvas for those looking to transform the space into a contemporary living environment. The garden, currently overgrown, can be revitalised into a lovely outdoor area, adding great value to the home.

With a guide price of £350,000, the potential for improvement outweighs the current condition of the property, especially considering the medium refurbishment scale of £40,000 to £80,000. While the floor area is missing, which prevents a direct valuation against local £/sqf, the asking price remains neutral and should attract interest from those ready to undertake a project. Just remember that bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the final sale price may vary.

Key opportunities

  • Spacious rooms allow for flexible redesign and modernisation.
  • Overgrown garden can be transformed into a beautiful outdoor space.
  • Opportunity to update dated kitchen and bathroom for improved functionality.

Key risks

  • Medium scale of renovation required to address general wear and outdated decor.
  • Potential damp or wear may need assessment during renovation.
