Description

This two-bedroom detached bungalow in Exmouth is offered with no onward chain and is described as needing modernisation. The accommodation includes a spacious sitting room opening through an archway to a separate dining area, a fitted kitchen with freestanding appliances, two double bedrooms and a shower room. Gas central heating and uPVC double glazing are stated, along with an EPC rating of C. The entrance hall has storage and access to the roof space via a pull-down ladder. The kitchen has a side door, built-in larder and a range of cupboards and work surfaces. Outside, the front and rear gardens are arranged for relatively low maintenance, with paved and gravelled areas and shrub borders. A driveway provides off-road parking for two cars, and the integral garage has light, power, shelving and a further loft space. The agent notes that garage conversion to another room may be possible, subject to any required consents. Parkside Drive is described as convenient for bus routes and local amenities, with shops and supermarkets a short drive away. Exmouth town centre and seafront are stated to be just under three miles away, with a railway station providing services towards Exeter. The property is marketed by Hall & Scott, Exmouth.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

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

59out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This is a clean, usable detached bungalow with a straightforward modernisation canvas: the older finishes, including the kitchen, shower room and flooring, offer scope for a light refresh rather than a major overhaul. The spacious sitting and dining rooms, two double bedrooms, maintained exterior, driveway and integral garage give the property a solid base, with the garage offering potential for another room subject to consents.

At £315,000, it is priced at about £334 per sq ft, 6% below the local average, which is a positive for WHOTS. The overall opportunity is still weak: the estimated £5,000–£12,000 of works leaves only a modest margin against the implied current local average value, before fees and other purchase costs. Its C-rated EPC and convenient Exmouth setting add appeal, but the numbers call for careful budgeting.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the older kitchen, shower-room finishes and flooring to give the clean interior a more contemporary feel.
  • Make selective improvements to the gravel-and-paving rear garden, including clearing weeds between the surfaces.
  • Explore whether the integral garage could become an additional room, subject to necessary consents and confirmed feasibility.
