Description
This two-bedroom semi-detached house is offered with no upward chain and is situated in the Swingate area of Kimberley. The accommodation includes an entrance hall, a lounge with a feature fireplace, and a dining kitchen with fitted units and access to a conservatory. A ground-floor shower room and a separate first-floor WC are also provided.
Upstairs are two bedrooms and a further room currently used as a cupboard. The listing identifies the cupboard and WC area as a possible location for a third bedroom, subject to the necessary consents. The property is described as needing general updating and modernising, giving a buyer scope to adapt the interior to their requirements.
Outside, the front garden has lawn and planted borders, while the enclosed rear garden includes a patio, lawn, greenhouse and timber shed. The listing notes that a driveway may be possible at the front, subject to planning. Kimberley town centre, local schools, countryside walks and transport links are described as being nearby. The vendor reports that the boiler is around 15 years old and was last serviced in 2024.
WHOTS analysis
Our WHOTS verdict
An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
50out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity
Confidence: LOW
This is a light-updating project with a useful canvas: the lounge, bedrooms and kitchen have dated finishes, while the enclosed west-facing garden offers patio, lawn and established planting. The listing also highlights scope to explore a third bedroom from the upstairs WC and cupboard, subject to building consents; converting the front garden to a driveway is another possibility, subject to planning. The renovation range is £7,000–£14,000.
The score is 50/100, grade D (Weak Opportunity), with the main limitation being that the overall value case is not yet clear. Floor area is missing, so value versus local £/sqf cannot be judged yet. A ceiling crack and deterioration near the bottom of a wall are visible and merit inspection; the roof appears intact in the available views, though its condition cannot be confirmed.
Key opportunities
- Refresh dated wall finishes and flooring across the lounge and bedrooms to give the main living spaces a more contemporary feel.
- Update the worn kitchen units and finishes as part of the £7,000–£14,000 light-renovation scope.
- Explore the upstairs WC and cupboard as a possible third-bedroom layout, subject to building consents.
Key risks
- Inspect the visible ceiling crack and deterioration near the bottom of a wall to establish their cause and any required repair.
