Description

This detached period house is arranged as five to seven bedrooms, with two reception rooms, a sun loggia, a kitchen, a large cellar, a bathroom with a separate WC and a ground-floor shower room. The accommodation offers scope to be rearranged, and the property is described as needing updating. Gas-fired central heating and double-glazed windows are stated. The cellar includes partitioned areas, a utility space and access from the rear garden. Set back from the road, the house occupies a plot of just over a quarter of an acre. There is a walled front garden with a driveway providing parking for several vehicles, and a large south-facing rear garden enclosed by walls on three sides, with lawn, paved areas and a pond. The listing notes proximity to Worthing town centre and the mainline railway station, and gives an EPC rating of D.

Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This substantial double-bay period house has a lot to work with: multiple reception and bedroom spaces, period details, a large walled rear garden and generous parking. The photographed rooms offer scope for redecoration, new flooring and a cosmetic refresh, while the fitted kitchen and bathroom are dated; the peeling or damaged finish across part of the rear elevation also needs investigating. The stated renovation range is £18,000–£38,000, making this a medium-scale project with room to shape the accommodation and garden.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated finishes and flooring across the photographed rooms, including the fitted kitchen and bathroom.
  • Make the most of the substantial period layout, with scope to rearrange the accommodation subject to feasibility and approvals.
  • Improve the large walled rear garden and investigate the stated potential to extend, subject to planning feasibility.

Key risks

  • Investigate and repair the conspicuous peeling or damaged external finish on the rear elevation.
