Grade BGood opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £325,000, this is a notably low-priced way into a central, Grade II* listed four-bedroom period house: the asking price is £194/sq ft, around 54% below the local average. Its well-proportioned rooms, exposed beams and prominent fireplaces give the project character to work with, while the paved rear terrace and powered outbuilding add useful outdoor space. The dated finishes and damaged wall and ceiling surfaces in a second-floor room leave scope to refresh the interiors and improve the garden; the works range is £18,000–£35,000. The roof tiles look aged, though the photos do not establish whether repairs are needed.
Key opportunities
- Refresh the well-proportioned reception and bedroom spaces while retaining and highlighting the exposed beams and feature fireplaces.
- Update the dated kitchen and bathroom finishes as part of a coherent modernisation of this Grade II* listed home.
- Tidy the planting around the paved rear terrace and make use of the powered outbuilding.
Key risks
- Damaged wall and ceiling finishes in a second-floor room add repair work beyond a straightforward redecoration.
- The £18,000–£35,000 works range and damaged finishes across the project call for a proper budget and programme, rather than a cosmetic refresh.
