Description

This three-bedroom semi-detached period house, dating from 1906, is offered with no onward chain and has scope for refurbishment and reconfiguration. The ground floor includes two separate reception rooms, one with a fireplace, and a long galley kitchen. Original leaded glass at the entrance and other period details remain in place.

Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This 1906 semi has a strong period starting point: leaded glass, fireplaces and two separate reception rooms, alongside driveway parking and a rear outlook over allotments. There is plenty to reshape and personalise, from the narrow galley kitchen and dated finishes across several rooms to clearing and reinstating the overgrown garden; the large principal bedroom also offers scope to rethink its layout, subject to feasibility and approvals.

The price is the harder part of the WHOTS case. At £290,000, the asking price is about 5% above the local £/sqf average, and adding the £42,000–£72,000 renovation range leaves the purchase-plus-works cost stretched against the local benchmark for this floor area. That comparison is with current local average value, not a forecast of the renovated home's value, so the period character and project potential need to be weighed against tight economics.

Key opportunities

  • Restore and update the period interiors while retaining features such as the coloured leaded glass and fireplaces.
  • Rework the narrow galley kitchen and refresh the dated finishes across several rooms.
  • Clear and reinstate the overgrown rear garden, with an open outlook across allotments.

Key risks

  • Asking price plus the £42,000–£72,000 renovation range looks stretched against the local value benchmark for this floor area; that benchmark is not a post-works valuation.
  • Loose wall covering and ceiling marks need investigation as part of planning the works.
