Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This spacious two-bedroom mid-terraced home in Blackpool presents an appealing opportunity for buyers looking to create their ideal living space. Priced at £85,000, the asking price offers a compelling entry point at £93/sqf, which is notably below the local average of £106/sqf. The property features generous reception rooms with character, a low-maintenance enclosed courtyard, and well-proportioned bedrooms, all of which highlight its potential for modernisation.

While the overall condition shows signs of age, and there are dated fixtures in the kitchen and bathroom, this offers a canvas for personalisation and improvement. However, the all-in costs, factoring in an estimated renovation budget of £60,000, stretch the investment compared to local benchmarks, indicating that the economics may be challenging for potential buyers. It's essential to consider this aspect when evaluating the opportunity, as the margin against the local average value is negative. Nonetheless, the character and location of this property provide significant scope for those willing to take on a medium-scale renovation project.

  • Spacious reception rooms with character.
