Description

Offered at auction, this two-bedroom semi-detached house is set on a generous plot in the hamlet of Wall, near Reawla. The property includes a gated gravel driveway, a detached garage or workshop and a large rear garden with lawn, paved areas and a greenhouse. It is being sold as seen, with contents included, and requires decoration and modernisation throughout. The ground floor has a kitchen with a range cooker and a sizeable living and dining room featuring exposed beams, tiled flooring and a stove, which has not been tested. A rear lean-to extension provides additional flexible space and opens onto the garden. Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a shower room. The listing notes scope to reconfigure the ground floor, subject to checking feasibility. The property is being sold by traditional online auction, with bidding terms and buyer fees applying. It is described as freehold, with mains electricity, water and drainage; gas is to be confirmed. Hayle, Camborne, Penzance and Helston are within reach, and the listing gives approximate journey times to nearby schools and Upton Towans beach.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

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

46out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This is a substantial project with a distinctive starting point: beamed ceilings, deep window sills and a stove in the living/dining space, plus a large garden, gated driveway and detached garage/workshop. The ground floor is described as having scope for reconfiguration, while the dated, cluttered interiors and neglected garden offer plenty of scope to reshape and modernise the house. The lean-to’s damaged or detached ceiling material and debris, and the garden’s overgrowth and waste, are part of the work to plan for.

The score is 46/100, grade E, reflecting limited condition scoring and value that cannot yet be judged rather than a confirmed poor price: floor area is missing, so comparison with local £/sqf is not possible. The auction guide price is £175,000, with a £45,000–£85,000 renovation range; bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap.

Key opportunities

  • Rework the ground floor layout around the beamed living/dining space, deep window sills and stove, subject to checking feasibility.
  • Create a more usable garden from the generous plot, and make use of the gated driveway and detached garage/workshop.
  • Modernise the dated kitchen and interior finishes to give the two double bedrooms and living spaces a coherent update.

Key risks

  • The cluttered, extensively dated interiors, damaged lean-to ceiling material and heavily overgrown garden make this a full-project programme; allow for a £45,000–£85,000 works budget rather than a cosmetic refresh.
