Grade BGood opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £70,000, this two-bedroom end-terrace is priced at about £79 per sq ft, well below the local average of £170 per sq ft—a strong entry point for a buyer looking to acquire and add value. It also offers two reception rooms, a fitted kitchen and shower room, and useful front and rear outdoor space.
The project is mainly about refreshing the dated finishes: older carpets and visible marks or discolouration appear in several rooms, while the kitchen and shower room offer scope for updating rather than necessarily requiring full replacement. The visible frontage and boundary wall appear intact, though the roof is only partly visible. The renovation range is £7,000–£14,000. This is being sold by the Modern Method of Auction; bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap.
Key opportunities
- Acquire at a low asking price relative to the local £/sq ft average.
- Refresh the worn carpets and dated finishes across the photographed rooms to give the interior a more cohesive look.
- Update the fitted kitchen and shower room to suit a buyer’s taste, while retaining the existing practical layout.
