59out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £185,000, this two-bedroom terrace is priced well below the local average per square foot, giving buyers a cheaper entry point and room to shape the property. Its bay-fronted living room, separate dining room, fireplaces and exposed brick offer character to work with, while the tiered garden adds useful outdoor space and rooftop views.

The photographed interiors are consistently dated, with worn floors and finishes creating scope for a substantial makeover, including updating the narrow kitchen and bathroom. The open area in the bathroom ceiling needs investigation and making good, and the rear lean-to or outbuilding looks weathered. The numbers are mixed overall: the low purchase price is attractive, but the renovation midpoint brings the indicative total close to the current local average value, before fees or any difference in value after renovation.

Key opportunities

  • Rework the separate living and dining areas around the bay window, fireplaces and exposed brick to make the most of the house’s existing character.
  • Use the dated kitchen and bathroom as opportunities to create a more cohesive, modern finish.
  • Tidy and improve the tiered garden, retaining its established planting and rooftop outlook while making the steps and outdoor areas more usable.

Key risks

  • The £35,000–£60,000 works range makes this a substantial improvement programme rather than a cosmetic refresh; allow for budget and time to update finishes and investigate and make good the open bathroom ceiling.
  • The rear outbuilding or lean-to has weathered surfaces and a deteriorated-looking roof covering, which may need attention.
