Description

This two-bedroom terraced house has a traditional ground-floor arrangement with two separate reception rooms, retaining features such as a fireplace and decorative ceiling roses. The rooms offer scope for updating and can be arranged to suit different living or dining needs. At the rear, the kitchen is accompanied by a separate lobby or utility area. Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a generously sized family bathroom. The property also has a rear garden, while street parking is available at the front. The home would suit a buyer prepared to refresh and personalise its interiors. Its two reception rooms, double bedrooms and existing character details provide a starting point for considering improvements, subject to inspection and refurbishment costs.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

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

72out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £150,000, this is an attractive entry point: the asking price is 37.4% below the local average per square foot, making the low acquisition cost a clear part of the opportunity. The two-reception layout, two double bedrooms and modest rear garden give you a practical base to make your own, with fireplaces and decorative ceiling details adding character worth working around.

The work looks like a light, cosmetic project rather than a major overhaul. Dated finishes, worn timber flooring and a basic kitchen and bathroom offer scope to refresh the interiors; the renovation range is £6,000–£14,000. The score is supported by strong price and economics, while the location and condition are less compelling than the value proposition.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated interiors and worn timber floors as a light, manageable project.
  • Make the two separate reception rooms work for your needs while retaining the fireplaces and decorative ceiling details.
  • Personalise the modest, maintained rear garden for seating or planting.
