63out of 100
Grade CPotential opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £235,000, this three-bedroom home is priced below the local average per square foot, giving buyers an opportunity to acquire at a relatively attractive entry point. It presents as clean and usable, with a light cosmetic refresh—particularly to the older-style kitchen and bathroom finishes—offering scope to personalise rather than a major renovation. The lounge’s bay window and feature fireplace, conservatory and established rear garden add character and useful space.

The asking price plus the £5,000–£12,000 renovation range puts the indicative purchase-and-works total at about £240,000–£247,000, before fees or stamp duty; this is a simple addition, not a projected resale value. The listing also mentions possible rear extension and front-garden parking, both subject to permissions and practical feasibility.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the older-style kitchen and bathroom finishes while retaining fixtures that appear intact.
  • Make cosmetic improvements to the décor and floor coverings to personalise the clean, usable living spaces.
  • Improve the presentation of the established rear garden; the listing also suggests possible rear extension or front-garden parking, subject to permissions and feasibility.
