66out of 100
Grade CPotential opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £70,000, this two-bedroom terraced house is priced at £102/sqf, 39% below the local average — a clear opportunity to acquire at a low entry price. The cul-de-sac setting, two-bedroom layout and front parking give the project a useful starting point, while the worn floors, damaged wall finishes, dated kitchen and overgrown rear garden offer plenty of scope to reshape and improve it.

This is a substantial, multi-room project rather than a cosmetic refresh, and the photos do not confirm the condition of the roof or fabric. The numbers indicate some headroom against the local average, but the work and programme need careful planning.

Key opportunities

  • Rework the living space and dated kitchen finishes to give the ground floor a more coherent, refreshed feel.
  • Restore the worn floors and patchy wall surfaces, then update the dated decoration across the two bedrooms.
  • Clear the overgrown rear garden and improve its borders to make better use of the outdoor space.

Key risks

  • Worn floors, damaged wall finishes and unfinished-looking kitchen areas across several rooms mean a substantial multi-room programme; allow time to prepare and rebuild the interior rather than treating this as a cosmetic refresh.
