Description
This detached period house has three bedrooms and sits on a plot described as approximately 0.65 acres, including a separate field or paddock opposite the house. The property is positioned between Hatfield Peverel and Boreham, with the listing noting countryside views and a short drive to Hatfield Peverel station. It is offered with no onward chain and requires internal updating.
The ground floor includes a hall, separate sitting and dining rooms, a galley-style kitchen, bathroom and separate cloakroom. Upstairs are three bedrooms, with bedroom three accessed through bedroom two. Outside, the rear garden backs onto fields and includes several outbuildings, a lean-to and a shed. The front paddock has vehicular access and is described as having previously been used for grazing, with parking also available.
The listing identifies scope to remodel or extend, subject to the necessary consents. The house and its grounds will require assessment to establish the condition of the buildings, boundaries and land, and the feasibility of any proposed changes.
WHOTS analysis
Our WHOTS verdict
An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
51out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity
Confidence: LOW
This is a distinctive period-house project, with the 0.65-acre plot, separate paddock, mature gardens and countryside outlook setting it apart. The house appears broadly intact externally, while dated finishes across several rooms offer scope for redecoration and new flooring; the weathered outbuildings and dark staining low on a living-room wall are worth checking. The renovation range is £5,000–£15,000, with the grounds and outbuildings adding their own practical considerations.
The score is 51/100 (D, Weak Opportunity). The asking price is £650,000, but floor area is missing, so value versus local £/sqf cannot yet be judged. The extensive outdoor space and potential to refresh the interiors give it appeal, though the value case remains difficult to assess without that comparison.
Key opportunities
- Refresh the dated decorative finishes and older flooring across the living spaces and bedrooms.
- Make the most of the mature gardens, open paddock and countryside outlook, with scope to improve overgrown borders.
- Assess how the weathered outbuildings could be maintained or put to practical use.
