Description

Offered at auction, this pair of adjoining terraced houses is currently arranged as a one-bedroom home and a two-bedroom home. The accommodation includes two kitchens, two living rooms, a dining room, a bathroom and a shower room. The properties are vacant and require modernisation. The listing notes potential to extend or combine the houses into one dwelling, subject to the necessary consents; feasibility would need to be checked.

Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This is a distinctive light project: two adjoining terraced houses, currently arranged as a one-bedroom and a two-bedroom home, with an enclosed rear garden. The visible interiors look usable but dated, offering scope for a cosmetic refresh; the garden could also benefit from clearance and tidying. The listing suggests the pair could potentially be reconfigured as one dwelling, subject to the necessary consents.

The asking price is £250,000, but floor area is missing, so value versus local £/sqf cannot yet be judged. The thatched roof has visible moss or organic growth and needs specialist assessment, as the photos do not establish its condition beneath the surface.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated but usable visible interiors while retaining the character of the exposed timber framing.
  • Improve the enclosed rear garden through clearance and maintenance.
  • Explore the potential to reconfigure the two dwellings as one, subject to requisite consents.

Key risks

  • Visible moss or organic growth on the thatched roof warrants specialist assessment; its condition beneath the surface is not established by the photos.
