Description

Offered at auction, this three-bedroom semi-detached house in Chapel Park is being sold with no onward chain. The ground floor has an entrance hall, a fitted kitchen and an open-plan lounge and dining area with sliding doors to the rear garden. There is also an integral garage with power and lighting. Upstairs are three bedrooms, two with fitted wardrobes, and a fully tiled four-piece bathroom with a shower cubicle and walk-in bath. The front has a block-paved driveway with space for two vehicles, alongside the garage. The enclosed rear garden is arranged with gravel and paved seating areas. The property is leasehold, with a stated 999-year lease from 1 June 1970 and ground rent of £20 per annum. Buyers should verify the lease terms and associated costs with their legal adviser. The auction terms include a £2,000 plus VAT administration fee, and the listing advises that a mining search would be beneficial.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

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

53out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This is a usable three-bedroom project with a spacious open-plan lounge/dining area, an integral garage, driveway parking and an enclosed, low-maintenance rear garden. The work looks mainly cosmetic: dated finishes and older flooring run across several photographed rooms, with the kitchen and bathroom also looking old-fashioned but intact. A £5,000–£12,000 renovation range gives a sense of the scope for refreshing it and adding your own style.

The score is held back by gaps in the value picture rather than a visible major defect: floor area is missing, so value against local £/sq ft cannot yet be judged. It is being sold by auction at a guide price; bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated wallpaper, carpets and decorative finishes across the photographed living spaces and bedrooms.
  • Update the older kitchen and bathroom finishes while retaining what is serviceable.
  • Make use of the open-plan lounge/dining area, integral garage, driveway and enclosed garden as a practical family-home canvas.
