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

73out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

Holy Trinity House combines an unusually large 4,844 sq ft footprint with striking historic character: stone elevations, a tower, arches, timber ceilings and stained glass. At £300,000, the asking price is around £62 per sq ft against a local average of £153, making it a notably cheap entry point for a buyer looking to acquire and shape a distinctive building.

This is a substantial transformation project rather than a cosmetic refresh. Extensive unfinished interiors, exposed framing and wiring, incomplete bathroom work and untidy grounds leave plenty to complete, while the existing kitchen and some conversion work provide a starting point. The £90,000–£200,000 renovation range reflects the scale of the opportunity; the final layout and feasibility should be checked. The building’s roof cannot be closely assessed from the available views.

Key opportunities

  • Use the 4,844 sq ft across two floors to develop a considered layout around the large church-like spaces, arches and timber ceilings.
  • Restore and showcase the stone architecture, tower and stained-glass windows as defining features of the finished property.
  • Complete the visible conversion work and improve the overgrown grounds to give the building a coherent next chapter.

Key risks

  • Extensive unfinished areas, exposed wiring and framing, incomplete bathroom fit-out and building materials make this a full-scale programme, with a £90,000–£200,000 works range rather than a cosmetic refresh.
  • The roof slopes cannot be closely assessed from the available ground-level views.
