Description

Offered at auction, this three-bedroom semi-detached house in Inglesham is being sold with no onward chain. The ground floor has an entrance hall, lounge, separate dining room and kitchen. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The listing describes the property as requiring improvement and identifies a generous plot, with a substantial rear garden and a front garden that may offer scope for off-road parking. Possible extensions to the rear, side or front are subject to planning and other necessary approvals, which would need to be checked independently. The hamlet setting is on the outskirts of Highworth, with local amenities and transport links described as within easy reach. The sale uses the Modern Method of Auction, with a reservation agreement and fee applying. Buyers should review the information pack and auction terms, and make their own enquiries about the property and any proposed works.

Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £300,000, this three-bedroom semi is priced below the local average at £306/sq ft versus £351/sq ft, giving buyers a cheaper entry point for a substantial improvement project. The two reception rooms and generous plot offer room to rethink the home, while the listing also describes potential for extensions and off-road parking, subject to planning and approvals.

There is visible work to shape the project: dated, worn finishes across several rooms, an extensively peeling bathroom wall finish, a damaged/open ceiling panel with nearby staining, and a heavily overgrown rear garden. The £25,000–£45,000 renovation range indicates meaningful scope, and the economics remain tight against the implied local average even at the midpoint. The ceiling damage and staining need investigation; the exterior views show no clear major failure, but the roof and masonry warrant closer inspection.

Key opportunities

  • Use the three-bedroom, two-reception layout as a base for a whole-home refresh and make the living spaces your own.
  • The substantial rear garden offers scope for landscaping and outdoor use, while the plot may allow extension or front parking options subject to planning and approvals.
  • The asking price is below the local average at £306/sq ft versus £351/sq ft, offering a cheaper acquisition point.

Key risks

  • The £25,000–£45,000 works range, damaged ceiling panel and nearby staining, peeling bathroom wall finish, and garden clearance make this a substantial project to budget and programme rather than a cosmetic refresh; investigate the ceiling damage and staining.
