Confidence: LOW

This three-bedroom detached property in Swinton offers a spacious accommodation with generous living areas, perfect for those looking to create their ideal family home. While the interiors are dated, there is excellent potential for modernisation throughout, allowing new owners to personalise the space to their taste. The property features a large open-plan living and dining area, providing a versatile layout for everyday family life, and a good-sized rear garden that enhances outdoor living.

Situated in a sought-after residential location and offered with no onward chain, this property is a fantastic opportunity for buyers willing to invest in refurbishments. With renovation costs estimated between £40,000 and £80,000, the overall project scale is medium, allowing for significant value addition. The asking price of £200,000 is appealing given the location and potential, although the lack of floor area means we can't assess value against local £/sqf yet. This may represent an affordable entry point into the market, but keep in mind that the ultimate sale price could exceed the guide as bidding progresses.

Key opportunities

  • Open-plan living and dining area provides a versatile layout for family life and entertaining.

  • Opportunity to modernise the kitchen and bathroom to enhance overall value.

Key risks
