Description
This three-bedroom semi-detached house in Illogan is offered with no onward chain and has driveway parking, a separate dining room and an enclosed paved rear garden. The ground floor includes an entrance porch, cloakroom, lounge and a kitchen-dining room with an archway through to the second reception room. The kitchen has fitted cabinets, appliances and a door to the garden. Upstairs are three double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The property has double glazing and gas central heating. The accommodation would benefit from updating, including a kitchen refit, giving a buyer scope to modernise the existing layout. Outside, the driveway provides parking for two vehicles, with a gated side area that may offer further parking. The rear garden has paved areas, a timber shed with power and light, and backs onto playing fields. Local shops, a post office, a doctors surgery and the A30 are nearby. The property is freehold and in council tax band C; the EPC is awaiting assessment.
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 £285,000, this three-bedroom semi is priced almost exactly in line with the local average at £276 per sq ft versus £277, so the price is reasonable rather than a clear bargain. The overall WHOTS score is 55/100 (D): sound fundamentals and location help, but the economics are tight, with the purchase price plus the renovation midpoint slightly above the implied current local average value. That comparison is not a renovated value estimate.
The appeal is a manageable cosmetic project: older finishes and marked carpets offer scope to refresh the interiors, while the visible fittings appear intact. The enclosed paved garden backs onto playing fields, and driveway parking for two to three cars adds practical value. The renovation range is £5,000–£12,000.
Key opportunities
- Refresh the older decoration and replace visibly worn carpets to give the lounge and bedrooms a more current finish.
- Update the dated kitchen and bathroom while retaining the visible intact fittings where practical.
- Make use of the enclosed paved garden, shed and driveway parking for two to three cars; the garden also backs onto playing fields.
