Description
This three-bedroom terraced house is arranged over three floors, with an open-plan ground floor connecting the living and dining areas to a rear kitchen. The kitchen is described as having white gloss units, a gas range cooker, stainless steel chimney hood, patterned tiled splashback and space for an American-style fridge freezer. Double doors lead from the living and dining space to the rear garden.
Two bedrooms and a bathroom with a walk-in shower are on the first floor. The top floor contains the principal bedroom, with Velux windows and an en-suite shower room. The property is owner occupied, has an EPC rating of C and is held on a 999-year lease with a £1 annual ground rent. On-street parking is noted.
The rear plot extends towards Sunk Lane and has been described as having possible development potential, subject to planning. Previous applications for a dwelling were refused in 2021 and 2023, with the 2021 appeal dismissed, so any future proposal would need to be assessed independently. The listing also notes that 18 and 18a are currently on one freehold title, to be split on completion, and advises buyers to check the planning status of 18a as a separate home.

Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
This three-storey terrace has a usable, recently finished feel in the photographed areas, with an open-plan living and dining space, a fitted kitchen and a shower room. The clearest hands-on opportunity is the heavily overgrown rear garden: clearing it and bringing it back into use could make a real difference, without the interior photos pointing to a major refurbishment.
The price is the sticking point. At £250,000, the asking price is around 18.6% above the local £/sqf average, and even a light-to-medium improvement programme would leave the purchase and works costs stretched against the local benchmark for this floor area. The garden’s development potential is uncertain: previous applications were refused and an appeal was dismissed, so it should not underpin the value case. Overall, this is a low-opportunity project unless the price can better reflect the local market and the garden’s constraints.
Key opportunities
- Clear and reinstate the overgrown rear garden to create a more usable outdoor space.
- Retain the serviceable fitted kitchen and shower room while focusing improvements on presentation and the garden.
- Make the most of the open-plan living and dining layout, which already connects directly to the rear garden.
Key risks
- At the asking price, purchase plus improvement costs look stretched against local benchmarks for a home of this floor area.
- Do not rely on rear-plot development to support the purchase: previous applications were refused and an appeal was dismissed.
- Budget carefully — economics look thin when the asking price sits alongside the indicated works scale — around 17% above what similar-sized stock commands locally today. Finished value after works is not modelled here.
