Description

This two-bedroom semi-detached house is offered with no onward chain and provides scope for modernisation. The ground floor includes a reception room with a front-facing bay window and fireplace, alongside a practical-sized kitchen overlooking the rear garden. The kitchen layout could be reconsidered to create a kitchen-diner, subject to requirements and feasibility. Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a bathroom. The property also has a front lawn, a driveway leading to a detached garage, and a paved rear garden with boundary walling and access to the garage. Local shops, supermarkets and cafés are available in Tunstall and Burslem, with Burslem Park and Tunstall Park nearby. Bus services connect with Hanley and other parts of the city. Longport railway station and road links via the A50 and A500 provide wider connections.

Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This two-bedroom semi offers a clear cosmetic project: the reception room has a bay window and fireplace, while the dated finishes across the visible rooms give scope to refresh flooring, décor and fittings. The driveway, detached garage, front lawn and usable paved rear garden add practical appeal, and the kitchen could be reworked to create a kitchen-diner if that suits the buyer’s plans.

The main drawback is the price: at £177 per sq ft, the £125,000 asking price is above the local average of £166 per sq ft. With the £8,500–£16,000 refurbishment range, the purchase price plus works would also leave costs stretched against the local benchmark for a home of this size; that comparison is with current local values, not a forecast of post-renovation value. The location and usable layout give the project some merit, but the numbers make this a limited overall opportunity.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated reception room, bedrooms and finishes to personalise the home.
  • Consider reworking the practical-sized kitchen towards a kitchen-diner, subject to requirements.
  • Make use of the driveway, detached garage and paved rear garden for parking, storage and outdoor seating.

Key risks

  • At the £125,000 asking price, adding the £8,500–£16,000 refurbishment range leaves the projected purchase-and-works cost stretched against the local value benchmark for this floor area.
  • Worth allowing for £137,250 when purchase and the £12,250 refurb range are added together, about 14% ahead of typical local benchmarks for this size; post-works value sits outside our data.
