Description

Offered at auction, this three-bedroom mid-terraced house has accommodation arranged over two floors and is described as requiring updating and modernisation.

At the rear, a tiered garden provides outdoor space with scope for improvement. The property may suit buyers considering a refurbishment project or a home to update over time. Auction enquiries, bidding registration and legal documentation are available through Clive Emson.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

76out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £125,000, this three-bedroom terrace is priced at about £138 per sq ft, well below the local average of £260 per sq ft—a strong entry point for a value-add project. The asking price plus the stated renovation midpoint comes to £167,500, against an implied local-average value of about £235,085; that comparison is not a GDV and excludes fees and other costs.

There is clear scope to refresh the dated interiors, including the kitchen and bathroom, and bring the tiered rear garden back into use. Ceiling marks or spotting are visible in the kitchen and bathroom, and the worn finish around the bay window base is worth checking. This is an online auction: bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap.

Key opportunities

  • Modernise the dated kitchen and bathroom, including their marked finishes.
  • Refresh the patterned wallpaper and older flooring in the photographed living room and bedrooms.
  • Clear and landscape the tiered rear garden, making better use of its paved and raised areas.

Key risks

  • Ceiling marks or spotting are visible in the kitchen and bathroom; investigate the cause and any required remedial work.
  • The finish around the bay window base appears worn or damaged, and the roof could not be assessed from the available exterior view.
