Description

This two-bedroom semi-detached house is offered with vacant possession and no onward chain. The 822 sq ft layout includes an entrance hall, a separate living room and a kitchen diner, with two double bedrooms and a family bathroom upstairs. Storage is also noted throughout. The listing describes scope to create a third bedroom, as neighbouring homes have done, and to extend to the rear or side, subject to the necessary permissions and feasibility checks. Outside, there is a private rear garden and a front driveway for off-street parking. Shops and eateries on Chesterfield Road and London Road, Meersbrook Park and Graves Park are within walking distance, according to the listing. The property is stated to be in the catchment for Carfield Primary School and Newfield Secondary School. It is leasehold, in Council Tax Band B, and has an EPC rating of D.

Our WHOTS verdict

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

50out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This is a light-refresh project in a sought-after Meersbrook setting, with two double bedrooms, a usable garden, driveway parking and a bathroom that appears clean and serviceable. The older décor and finishes offer scope to update the home without the photos suggesting a major internal overhaul. The listing also mentions possible third-bedroom or extension options, though these would need feasibility checks and any required permissions.

At £230,000, the asking price is slightly above the local £/sqf benchmark rather than a value-led entry point. All-in costs for purchase and works look tight against local benchmarks, so the project’s appeal rests more on the location, outdoor space and improvement potential than on clear headroom at today’s price.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated décor and bedroom finishes while retaining the generally usable accommodation.
  • Make the most of the rear garden with routine clearance and landscaping.
  • Explore the stated third-bedroom or extension potential, subject to layout feasibility and permissions.
