Description

This two-bedroom terraced house in Grays is offered with no onward chain and is described as requiring modernisation. The ground floor has an entrance hall, two reception rooms and a rear kitchen with a door to the garden. Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The property has gas central heating, UPVC double-glazed windows and on-street parking, and is freehold. The rear garden is approximately 47 feet deep, with a paved patio and lawn. Grays town centre and mainline station are around a 15-minute walk away, with c2c services to London Fenchurch Street. Nearby shops and Grays Beach Riverside Park are also within walking distance. The existing room arrangement and outdoor space provide a basis for a buyer to consider updates, subject to inspection and any required checks.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

47out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This is a medium-scope project with a useful layout to work from: two reception rooms, two bedrooms and a long rear garden. The dated kitchen and bathroom, basic finishes and damaged, discoloured wall finish give a buyer clear scope to modernise the interior, while clearing and refreshing the garden could make better use of its patio-and-lawn layout. The renovation range is £42,000–£78,000.

The £275,000 asking price cannot yet be judged against local £/sqf because the floor area is missing, and the overall opportunity is rated low. Its walkable access to Grays town centre and station is a positive, but value and residual potential remain difficult to assess without the area figure.

Key opportunities

  • Modernise the dated kitchen and bathroom as part of a coherent interior update.
  • Refresh the two reception rooms and basic finishes, including repairing the visibly damaged and discoloured wall finish.
  • Clear and improve the long rear garden, retaining its patio and lawn layout.
