Description

This substantial Victorian terraced house is arranged over three floors and offers five bedrooms, two reception rooms, a kitchen, a shower room and a separate bathroom. The property is described as requiring complete renovation, with the kitchen and shower room specifically noted as needing refitting. The accommodation also includes a utility area, a first-floor store room and a partitioned dressing area to the largest bedroom. The layout may offer scope to create two flats, subject to planning and other necessary checks. The house is close to the seafront, station and town shops, and has a courtyard-style rear garden with a gate. Gas central heating is stated, although the boiler has not been tested.

Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £260,000, this five-bedroom Victorian terrace is priced at about £157/sq ft, well below the local average of £312/sq ft—a strong entry point for a substantial project. Its three-floor layout, two reception rooms and period character give scope to reshape the space, with the listing also suggesting a possible two-flat conversion subject to planning. The front elevation and roofline look broadly intact in the supplied view, and there is a rear courtyard garden.

The works are substantial: the kitchen and shower-room finishes need replacing, while dated flooring and decoration and localised wall or ceiling damage and staining are visible in several rooms. The renovation range is £55,000–£95,000, so this is a full-scale improvement programme rather than a cosmetic refresh; the visible staining and damage also warrant investigation. The calculated £335,000 purchase-plus-midpoint-works figure is not a GDV and excludes stamp duty and fees.

Key opportunities

  • Rework the three-floor, five-bedroom layout and two reception rooms to suit a larger household or a different configuration.
  • Use the period fireplaces, generous principal bedroom and extended rear reception as character features within a renewed interior.
  • Explore the listing’s suggested two-flat conversion, subject to planning.

Key risks

  • The £55,000–£95,000 works range and stripped or damaged finishes across several areas make this a substantial budget and programme, not a cosmetic refresh.
  • Visible wall and ceiling damage and staining in several rooms should be investigated to establish the cause and full repair scope.
