Our WHOTS verdict

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

74out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £125,000, this two-bedroom terrace is priced at about £177 per sq ft, well below the local average of £300 — a strong entry point for someone looking to acquire a project and create value. The dated finishes across several rooms give scope for a medium-scale refresh, while the driveway and garden add useful appeal. The online auction is scheduled for 11–12 November 2026; bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap.

The kitchen ceiling has visible discolouration, and the garden is heavily overgrown, so both deserve attention as part of the improvement plan. The visible front elevation appears generally intact, though the roof cannot be assessed adequately from the photograph.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated finishes across the living areas, hall and bedrooms, including worn carpets and wall finishes.
  • Update the older kitchen and bathroom to suit a new owner's specification.
  • Clear and landscape the overgrown garden, bringing the partly obscured paved areas back into use.

Key risks

  • Visible discolouration and marks on the kitchen ceiling warrant investigation to establish the cause.
  • The roof condition cannot be assessed adequately from the available exterior view.
