Description

Offered with no onward chain, this two-bedroom home has a large corner plot, a gated driveway and a garage. The kitchen has been recently fitted with grey units, wood-effect worktops, an electric hob and oven, and space for a washing machine. The adjoining dining area provides room for a table. The living room has a front-facing window and a fireplace with a marble surround. Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a bathroom with a shower cubicle, basin and WC. The property is described as needing further updating and finishing, leaving scope for a buyer to complete the interior to their requirements. The garden is mainly lawn, with established trees and shrubs. A former decked area needs attention, and the garage doors are identified as needing replacement or upgrading. The driveway provides parking for two cars. Local amenities and bus routes are nearby, with road links towards Sheffield city centre and Northern General Hospital. The listing also notes nearby schools.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

55out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £130,000, this is priced below the local average per square foot, making it an attractive entry point for a buyer looking to improve a home and create value. The relatively recent kitchen is a useful head start; the main scope is refreshing the dated floors and finishes, making good the patchy wall covering, and tackling the overgrown garden and deteriorated deck. The large corner plot, gated parking and garage add to the project’s appeal.

The overall score is still a weak opportunity: once the estimated works are included, the margin against the implied local average value is modest, at 4.3%. The renovation range is £6,500–£14,000, so the economics leave limited room for costs beyond the purchase and works.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the patterned flooring and dated interior finishes, including making good the patchy wall covering.
  • Reclaim the overgrown corner-plot garden and improve or replace the deteriorated deck.
  • Build on the relatively recent fitted kitchen, with gated parking for two cars and a garage adding practical appeal.
