78out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £170,000, this two-bedroom semi is priced well below the local average per square foot, making the asking price a clear opportunity to acquire a home with room to add value. The spacious through sitting room, conservatory and usable lawn-and-patio garden give the project a good starting point, while the dated finishes across several rooms leave scope to create a more contemporary interior.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated decoration and worn bedroom carpets to give the interiors a more cohesive finish.
  • Rework the dated kitchen and bathroom finishes to suit a new owner's style and priorities.
  • Make the most of the spacious through sitting room, conservatory and usable lawn-and-patio garden.
