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

48out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This is a distinctive four-floor house with a clear scope to refresh the older interiors: the visible kitchens, flooring and decoration offer a chance to reshape the home around your own plans. The stone exterior, driveway and detached garage are useful features, and no major external defect is evident in the supplied views. The renovation range is £36,000–£72,000; the lower-ground area and its services merit closer inspection, including its moisture and ventilation.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the ground-floor kitchen and particularly tired lower-ground former wash kitchen, subject to confirming the lower-ground room’s intended use.
  • Update the older decoration and floor finishes visible across the lounge and several bedrooms.
  • Make use of the four-floor layout, stone character, driveway and detached garage when planning the finished home.

Key risks

  • Inspect the lower-ground room for moisture, ventilation and the condition of its exposed services; the ceiling and services warrant particular attention.
  • The roof is not fully assessable from the supplied photographs.
