Description
Offered at auction, this two-bedroom Grade II listed semi-detached cottage in Eckington is described as requiring modernisation and updating. The ground floor has a lounge, a dining or family room with a log burner, a kitchen with pantry and a rear porch. Upstairs are two bedrooms and a bathroom with a freestanding roll-top bath.
Outside, the property has a rear garden and brick-built stores. Access to the garden is via rights of way over neighbouring properties, so buyers should check the legal pack for the details. The sale is freehold with vacant possession on completion. The listing notes that mains water, gas, drainage and electricity are understood to be connected, but have not been tested.
Eckington has a village shop, primary school, pubs, recreation facilities and a village hall. Pershore is around four miles away, with Tewkesbury, Evesham and Worcester also within reach. Any improvement works or alterations would need to take account of the property's listed status and any required consents. The auction is unconditional, and bidders should review the legal pack, fees and special conditions before bidding.

Our WHOTS verdict
An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
45out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: LOW
Sunnycot has the character of a historic Grade II Listed cottage, with exposed beams, a log burner and two reception areas giving the project a distinctive starting point. The interiors are dated and worn, with visible localised damage, while the kitchen and bathroom offer scope for updating; the heavily overgrown garden and brick-built stores add another clear improvement opportunity. The renovation range is £38,000–£65,000, so this is a medium-scale project where the work and programme need planning, particularly with the listed status and any necessary consents in mind.
At a £175,000 guide price, value versus local £/sqf cannot yet be judged because the floor area is missing. Bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay at this level. The village setting and period character are appealing, but the overall WHOTS score is 45/100 (Grade E), reflecting a limited opportunity with value and residual economics still difficult to assess.
Key opportunities
- Refresh the worn interiors, including the visibly tired kitchen and bathroom, while working with the cottage’s exposed beams and period character.
- Clear and improve the overgrown rear garden and make better use of the brick-built stores.
- The two reception areas and log burner offer a distinctive layout and feature to build around.
Key risks
- Budget and programme for the £38,000–£65,000 renovation range, allowing for the listed status and any necessary consents.
- The floor area is missing, so value versus local £/sqf and residual value cannot yet be judged.
