Description

This two-bedroom home is offered with no onward chain and requires modernisation, giving a purchaser scope to update the accommodation to their requirements. The ground floor includes an entrance hall, a living room with a stone fireplace and built-in cupboards, and a separate dining room with a decorative brick fireplace and shelving. The kitchen has a mix of fitted and freestanding units, worktop space and a door to the garden. Upstairs are two double bedrooms, both with built-in storage, and a family bathroom. Stairs with restricted head height lead from the landing to a loft space with a Velux window and exposed beams; any further use would be subject to the necessary consents. The enclosed rear garden has a lawn, established borders and a partly gravelled and paved path. There are two outbuildings, one with a power socket and water tap, and another containing an outdoor WC. The property is freehold, has gas central heating and mains services, and on-road parking is available, with a permit option for the car park opposite. The listing notes that the property is in a mining and radon area and that material information is limited.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

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

79out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £135,000, this is a notably low-cost entry point against the local £/sqf benchmark, giving the project strong value appeal. The dated finishes throughout create a clear canvas for modernisation, with the kitchen, coloured bathroom fittings, worn flooring and decoration offering scope to reshape the interiors. The maintained lawn, established hedging and borders, plus two outbuildings, add useful character to the garden. The loft is an additional possibility to investigate, though restricted head height means its feasibility is unverified.

The numbers support a good opportunity, with a medium-scale renovation and strong value economics. The render is weathered, and the roof’s condition cannot be confirmed from the images.

Key opportunities

  • Modernise the dated kitchen and bathroom, and refresh decoration and flooring throughout to create a more cohesive interior.
  • Make use of the established garden, lawn and two outbuildings, with straightforward tidying of overgrown planting.
  • Investigate whether the loft space can be used further; the Velux window is a feature, but restricted head height makes feasibility uncertain.

Key risks

  • Weathering and discolouration are visible on the exterior render; roof condition cannot be confirmed from the images.
