75out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £175,000, this two-bedroom semi is priced at £198/sq ft, around 33% below the local average—a strong entry point for a buyer looking to acquire and add value. The spacious, usable reception room and bedrooms provide a practical base, while the dated kitchen and bathroom, basic utility area and tired garden offer clear scope to modernise and make the home your own.

The estimated works range is £20,000–£37,000, with the main visible projects being the kitchen and bathroom updates and improvements to the garden and weathered sheds. The conservatory and rear structures also merit inspection, as their condition and weather-tightness are uncertain. The gated driveway and enclosed garden are useful features to build on.

Key opportunities

  • Update the dated kitchen and bathroom to give the home a more contemporary feel.
  • Improve the enclosed split-level garden, including its overgrown beds and weathered sheds.
  • Build on the spacious reception room, usable bedrooms and gated driveway as a practical foundation for the project.

Key risks

  • The conservatory roof and weather-tightness of the rear structures could not be confirmed from the available views; inspect before committing.
