Montague Street, Doncaster, DN1

At £75,000, this two-bedroom terrace is priced well below the local average per square foot, making the asking price a clear acquisition opportunity. The traditional layout, with two reception rooms, gives a renovator room to rethink the living and dining space, while the dated kitchen, coloured bathroom suite, flooring and decoration offer a visible medium-scale improvement project. The brick frontage looks broadly intact in the available view, though the roofline’s condition is not established by the ground-level image.

The value case is less convincing once the work is factored in: the asking price plus a mid-to-substantial programme leaves the all-in cost stretched against local benchmarks for this floor area. That comparison is with current local average values, not a forecast of what the property might be worth after renovation, so there is limited room for error in the project budget.
