31out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
This two-bedroom end-terrace has a clear medium-scale project in its older finishes and visibly deteriorated kitchen, with separate reception rooms and a maintained rear garden giving it a useful starting point. The asking price of £160,000 is about 13% above the local £/sqf average, however, and paying that premium before a mid-to-substantial programme of improvements leaves the overall cost stretched against local benchmarks for a home of this size. That makes this a weaker-value opportunity at the current price, despite the scope to put your own stamp on it.
Key opportunities
- Refresh the worn kitchen and dated interior finishes to give the home a more cohesive, contemporary feel.
- Make use of the separate reception rooms for distinct living and dining spaces.
- The maintained rear garden offers a usable outdoor space, with scope for optional landscaping.
Key risks
- At the current asking price, the purchase plus a mid-to-substantial improvement programme looks stretched against local benchmarks for this floor area.
- Purchase plus the works band looks tight with the asking price plus a meaningful modernisation spend, about 24% ahead of typical local benchmarks for this size, so margin after refurbishment is unproven.
