Description
Offered through the Modern Method of Auction, this three-bedroom character property is set back from Mudford Road and is reached on foot via Roping Path. The ground floor includes an entrance hall and a spacious living and dining room with a bay window facing the garden. A rear kitchen connects to a sun room and conservatory, providing further reception space.
Upstairs are two double bedrooms, a generous single bedroom and a family bathroom. The principal bedroom has a balcony overlooking the garden. A loft room is accessed by a ladder and may offer scope for conversion, subject to permissions and feasibility. Gardens extend around three sides of the house, with parking available nearby. The property is presented as an investment or development opportunity; buyers should review the auction terms, legal pack and reservation fee, and make their own checks on the condition and any proposed works.

Grade BGood opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £170,000, this three-bedroom semi is priced at about £135 per sq ft, well below the local average of £262 per sq ft—a strong entry point for a buyer seeking a project. The spacious living and dining area, established gardens and existing conservatory give it plenty to work with, while the dated kitchen, bathroom, flooring and decoration offer a clear modernisation canvas. The asking price plus the stated £40,000–£72,000 renovation range puts the indicative purchase-and-works total at £210,000–£242,000, before fees and other costs.
The loft room may offer further scope, subject to feasibility and permissions, and the bedroom ceiling staining or peeling finish warrants inspection. The listing is offered by auction: bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap.
Key opportunities
- Acquire at a notably low asking price per square foot compared with the local average.
- Modernise the dated kitchen, bathroom, decoration and flooring to create a more contemporary home.
- Assess the loft room for possible conversion and make the most of the conservatory and gardens.
Key risks
- Ceiling staining or peeling finish in a bedroom warrants investigation before budgeting for repairs.
- The loft room’s conversion feasibility and any required permissions are not established.
