Description

This three-bedroom semi-detached house in Derby is offered with no upward chain and is described as requiring full modernisation. The ground floor has an entrance hall, a spacious lounge with a feature fireplace, a large kitchen, a connecting lobby and a bathroom. A conservatory opens onto the rear garden. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with built-in storage. The property also has off-street parking and a substantial enclosed rear garden, with a double-width plot described by the seller. The seller advises that some land, including an area used for parking, may be rented from the council on a peppercorn lease, and that the council has previously offered it for sale. Buyers should establish the land ownership and any lease or purchase arrangements through their solicitor. The accommodation and plot provide scope for modernisation and landscaping, subject to checks on the land arrangements.

Our WHOTS verdict

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

67out of 100
Grade CPotential opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £160,000, this three-bedroom semi-detached is priced well below the local average per square foot, making the asking price a clear acquisition opportunity. It offers a medium-scale modernisation project, with dated finishes and worn flooring across the photographed interiors, an older kitchen with incomplete-looking units, and a bathroom ready for updating. The conservatory and substantial rear garden add scope to reshape the home and outdoor space.

Key opportunities

  • Modernise the dated kitchen and bathroom and refresh finishes and flooring across the photographed living spaces.
  • Clear and landscape the substantial rear garden, with the conservatory providing a connection to the outdoor space.
  • Make use of the three-bedroom layout, conservatory and off-street parking to create a home tailored to your needs.

Key risks

  • Verify the ownership and lease arrangements for the additional land, including the area said to incorporate off-street parking, with a conveyancing solicitor.
