57out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £200,000, this two-bedroom Stamshaw terrace is priced below the local average per square foot, giving buyers a more accessible entry point and room to shape the home. It is furnished and usable, with a practical layout, a separate rear living space and a small outbuilding; the dated finishes, localised wall damage and untidy garden offer scope for straightforward improvements. The kitchen and bathroom are present and appear usable, while low-level staining near the kitchen and rear lobby is worth investigating.
The estimated works are £7,000–£16,000, but the numbers still make this a weaker overall opportunity: purchase price plus the renovation midpoint is about £211,500, leaving only a 2.3% margin against the implied local average value before fees. The appeal is therefore the below-average entry price and manageable project, rather than a clear-cut margin.
Key opportunities
- Acquire below the local average per square foot and refresh the plain, dated finishes.
- Clear and maintain the rear garden, making better use of the outdoor space and small outbuilding.
- Investigate the low-level staining near the kitchen and rear lobby, then make good if required.
Key risks
- Low-level staining near the kitchen and rear lobby needs investigation; its cause is not established.
