Grade CPotential opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This three-bedroom terraced house presents an excellent opportunity for those looking to acquire a project at a competitive price. With an asking price of £180,000, which is significantly below the local average at £190/sqf compared to £299/sqf, buyers can capitalize on the potential to add value through renovation. The property features good room sizes and a rear garden, providing a solid foundation for creating a fantastic family home tailored to personal tastes.

However, the interior requires significant updating throughout, with dated decor and noticeable wear observed in several areas, including the kitchen. The condition of the kitchen is particularly poor, indicating a need for considerable work. Despite these challenges, the property's strong rental demand in the area and its generous room sizes enhance its appeal, making it a worthwhile investment for those willing to undertake the renovation. The medium project scale allows for a manageable renovation budget, ranging from £40,000 to £120,000, offering ample opportunity to enhance the property's value.

Key opportunities

  • Good room sizes provide a solid foundation for modernisation.
  • The rear garden offers potential for enhancement and outdoor enjoyment.
  • The property's competitive price versus local market rates allows for significant value addition.

Key risks

  • Significant updating required throughout, particularly in the kitchen.
  • General wear and dated decor in several rooms may require more extensive renovations.
  • Moderate risk associated with the overall condition of the property.
