The kitchen is described as having white wall and base units, an integrated oven, hob and extractor, with space for a dining table and fridge freezer. The bathroom has a bath with shower over, wash basin and WC. Gas central heating, mains services and uPVC windows are stated, along with an enclosed rear yard. The property is freehold, has an EPC rating of C and is in Council Tax Band A. The listing notes that modernisation is required, making the house a potential project for a buyer wishing to update the accommodation or an investor assessing a rental purchase.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

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

80out of 100
Grade AStrong opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £59,950, this three-bedroom terrace is priced at about £65/sq ft, well below the local average of £105/sq ft — a strong opportunity to acquire at a comparatively low entry price. The lounge and bedrooms look usable, the fitted kitchen and bathroom appear intact, and the EPC is C, leaving scope for a light, targeted refresh rather than a full overhaul.

The clearest value-add is replacing the visibly marked kitchen floor, with selective updates to worn carpets and a tidy-up of the enclosed rear yard. The indicative renovation range is £2,500–£6,000; the engine’s midpoint calculation puts purchase plus renovation at £64,200, compared with an implied current local-average value of £97,440. That is a comparison with the local average, not a renovated-value estimate, and excludes fees and stamp duty.

Key opportunities

  • Acquire at around £65/sq ft, substantially below the local average of £105/sq ft.
  • Replace the visibly marked kitchen flooring and selectively refresh worn carpets and finishes.
  • Improve the enclosed rear yard with a practical tidy-up or repair to the worn hardstanding.
