Description

Dixons, Erdington, are marketing this two-bedroom mid-terrace house with no onward chain. The ground floor has two separate reception rooms, including a front room with a bay window, followed by a fitted kitchen with wall and base units, work surfaces, tiled splashbacks and space for freestanding appliances. Upstairs are two bedrooms and a bathroom. Outside, the property has a small foregarden and an enclosed rear garden with a paved area, lawn and established planting. A gate at the far end provides rear access. The house offers scope for a purchaser to update the existing accommodation and tailor the garden to their requirements.

35out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This is a tidy, light-updating project with useful character: two separate reception rooms, a bay-fronted brick exterior and an enclosed garden with rear access. The dated finishes offer scope for fresh decoration, flooring and a cosmetic kitchen update, while the garden could be brought back into shape without the photos showing an obvious major structural issue.

The main drawback is the price. At £160,000, the asking price is about £203 per sq ft, around 18% above the local average of £173. The asking price plus the £5,000–£13,000 refurb range also leaves the indicative purchase-and-works cost stretched against the local floor-area benchmark; that comparison is not a post-renovation value forecast. On the numbers, this is a worthwhile canvas only if there is room to negotiate or the buyer places particular value on its layout and garden.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated decoration and older carpets across the shown living spaces and bedrooms.
  • Give the kitchen a cosmetic update to modernise its older cabinet and tile finishes.
  • Improve the enclosed garden by tidying overgrown areas and refreshing weathered paving; rear access adds practical convenience.

Key risks

  • At the asking price, even the stated £5,000–£13,000 works range leaves purchase and refurbishment costs high relative to the local floor-area benchmark.
