Description

This four-bedroom terraced house is arranged over three floors and includes a converted loft with an en-suite. The ground floor has a lounge/diner and a kitchen overlooking the rear garden. Three further bedrooms and a family bathroom are on the first floor, with the main bedroom and en-suite occupying the loft level. The rear garden is described as approximately 100 feet long, with a patio and lawn. The property also has a garage and off-road parking for two vehicles. The listing notes that a front driveway or rear extension could be considered, subject to the necessary planning permissions and other consents; feasibility would need to be checked. Oakfield Park is nearby, and the listing also cites local schools, road links including the A2 and M25, Dartford town centre and Bluewater Shopping Centre. The accommodation offers scope for changes, although the extent of any work or alteration would need to be established through inspection and relevant checks.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

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

51out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This is a spacious four-bedroom home with a useful three-floor layout, a standout loft suite and an approximately 100ft garden, plus a garage and parking. The interiors are liveable but dated in several places, giving a buyer scope for a light modernisation, while the more recently finished loft bedroom and en-suite provide a strong starting point.

The D grade reflects the numbers rather than a lack of project appeal: at £445,000, the asking price is above the local £/sqf average, and purchase plus works looks tight against local benchmarks. The garden, practical parking and potential to explore further changes add interest, but those possibilities depend on the relevant consents.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated decorative finishes, including the textured walls and bold bedroom décor, to give the liveable interiors a more cohesive feel.
  • The approximately 100ft garden combines patio and lawn, with scope to improve its presentation through routine upkeep.
  • The loft bedroom and contemporary en-suite are a more recent feature, while the listing also points to possible driveway or rear-extension options subject to consents.
