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 £120,000, this three-bedroom semi is priced well below the local average per square foot, making the asking price a clear opportunity to acquire a generous home with room to add value. The dated finishes are a usable canvas: refresh the decoration and flooring, modernise the older kitchen and bathroom to suit your plans, and bring the established garden back into shape. Two reception rooms, off-street parking, a sizeable mature plot and a detached garage across the road add useful scope and character.

Key opportunities

  • Acquire at £120,000, around 36.5% below the local average £/sqf.
  • Modernise the dated decoration, flooring, kitchen and bathroom to create a more contemporary home.
  • Make the most of the mature garden, off-street parking and detached garage across the road.
