Description

This detached chalet-style house in Rodborough has been extended to provide a ground-floor hall, utility room and shower room, with accommodation arranged over two floors. The ground floor includes a kitchen, a 23-foot sitting and dining room with glazed doors to the garden, and a bedroom. Upstairs are two further bedrooms and a bathroom. The property has gas central heating, double glazing and is offered with no onward chain. It is described as requiring refurbishment, giving a buyer scope to update the interiors to their own specification. Outside, a side drive leads to a detached garage, and the larger-than-typical garden rises behind the house. A paved area sits immediately to the rear, with steps leading to lawn, established trees and shrubs. The front garden is also sloping, with steps up to the entrance. The listing notes views towards Selsley Common from the front windows and across the surrounding area from the upper garden. Gastrells School, a public house and the National Trust commons at Rodborough and Minchinhampton are nearby. Stroud, around two miles away, offers a wider range of shops and services, schools and a mainline railway station. The property is freehold and connected to mains services, with ultrafast broadband reported as available locally.

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

61out of 100
Grade CPotential opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This detached chalet-style house offers a straightforward update project: the photographed rooms are usable, but dated wallpaper, flooring and finishes leave scope to refresh the interior to your taste. The asking price is about 5% below the local average per square foot, which supports the value case, although the estimated £7,000–£15,000 works budget leaves only a modest margin against the local average before fees and other costs.

The standout feature is the larger-than-typical established garden, with space to improve the planting and make better use of its different levels. Parking, a detached garage and the nearby commons add to the appeal, while the visible exterior appears broadly intact.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh dated wallpaper and floor finishes across the photographed living areas and bedrooms.
  • Update the kitchen’s older finishes while retaining its serviceable fitted units and worktops.
  • Improve the established hillside garden, making considered use of its lawn, mature planting, steps and views.
