Description

This three-bedroom semi-detached home in Moredon has an extended ground floor layout with a lounge, separate dining room and fitted kitchen. The former garage has been partly converted to provide utility and storage space, with a ground-floor WC. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. Outside, the property has driveway parking and an enclosed rear garden. Local transport links and the Orbital Shopping Centre are within reach. The house is offered through the Modern Method of Auction, with a reservation fee and buyer information pack applying. The existing layout and accommodation provide a basis for a purchaser to update the property to their requirements.

73out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £220,000, this three-bedroom extended semi is priced at about £195 per sq ft, well below the local average of £276 — a strong acquisition point for a buyer looking to add value. The two reception rooms, driveway and enclosed garden give the project a useful base, while the partially converted garage adds utility and storage space to assess.

Key opportunities

  • Rework the dated interiors and make the two reception rooms feel more cohesive, creating a refreshed family living and dining space.
  • The kitchen’s damaged ceiling and wall provide scope to investigate the cause and reshape this part of the home as part of the improvement project.
  • Clear and improve the enclosed garden, and verify the condition and suitability of the partially converted garage’s utility and storage space.

Key risks

  • The kitchen ceiling and wall have substantial visible damage; investigate the cause and full scope before settling on a repair plan.
  • Stripped-back finishes across several rooms, kitchen repairs and rear exterior weathering make this a substantial multi-area programme rather than a cosmetic refresh; allow for a coordinated schedule and contingency.
