Description

This two-bedroom mid-terrace house has two reception rooms and an extended kitchen, with scope for updating. The ground floor begins with an entrance vestibule and a lounge featuring high ceilings, decorative coving and a gas fire. A separate dining room sits to the rear, with understairs storage that houses the combination boiler. The kitchen is extended and could potentially be opened into the dining room to form a larger kitchen-diner, subject to checking feasibility. Upstairs are a double bedroom, a single bedroom and a family bathroom with a bath and overhead electric shower. The property is described as being close to supermarkets and other local amenities, and within walking distance of Park Primary School and the local high school. The listing gives an EPC rating of D.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

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

73out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £70,000, this two-bedroom stone terrace is a notably affordable way into the local market: its asking price works out at £94 per sq ft, well below the local average of £170. The rooms shown are usable, and the dated finishes give a buyer a clear, medium-scale canvas to personalise rather than a house with obvious major internal damage.

Key opportunities

  • Acquire at a low asking price relative to local £/sq ft, leaving scope to add value through improvement.
  • Modernise the dated kitchen, bathroom, décor and flooring to create a more contemporary home.
  • Explore the described potential to open the extended kitchen into the dining room, subject to feasibility and approvals.
