Description

Offered at auction, this three-bedroom semi-detached house is Grade II listed and is being sold vacant after a long period as a rental property. The accommodation requires modernising and updating throughout. The agent has been advised that the building may be of cob construction, so buyers should make their own enquiries and establish whether the construction is suitable for their intended finance and works. Outside, the property has off-road parking and a good-sized garden to the rear and side, which will need attention. It is in East Harling, around eight miles south-west of Attleborough and nine and a half miles north of Thetford. The sale is by unconditional online auction, with a binding contract at the end of the timed bidding and completion required within 28 days or as set out in the special conditions. The successful bidder must pay an administration charge and a deposit, and should review the auction pack and arrange any required mortgage offer before bidding. The seller has supplied an EICR, but the electricity is disconnected between the meter and consumer unit and will need to be reconnected by a qualified electrician.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

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

72out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £100,000, this three-bedroom semi-detached house is priced at £129 per sq ft, well below the local average of £299 per sq ft—an attractive entry point for someone looking to add value through a medium-scale renovation. The dated, worn finishes give a clear canvas for redecoration and new flooring, while the kitchen and bathroom also offer scope for modernisation. Outside, the off-road parking and good-sized rear and side garden could be appealing once the overgrowth and debris are cleared.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated interior finishes and worn floors to create a more cohesive feel.
  • Modernise the old-fashioned kitchen and bathroom as part of a considered update.
  • Clear and improve the overgrown rear and side garden, retaining the benefit of its stated size and off-road parking.

Key risks

  • Grade II listing and possible cob construction may constrain or complicate repair and improvement work; confirm the construction and requirements through appropriate surveys and research.
  • Electricity is disconnected between the meter and consumer unit and will need to be reconnected by a qualified electrician.
  • Some ground-floor openings are boarded, and a photographed upper room shows localised wall discolouration and staining of unestablished cause; investigate their condition.
