Description

Offered at auction, this three-bedroom detached house in Beighton includes an unfinished extension and is being sold as a project. The existing accommodation has a hallway with storage, a rear lounge with sliding doors to the garden, a second reception room and three first-floor bedrooms with a family bathroom. The extension is intended to add a ground-floor bedroom, space for a shower room and walk-in wardrobe, and a kitchen area. The works are incomplete, there is no functioning kitchen, and Building Regulations completion or sign-off has not been obtained. Planning permission was granted for the extension as a whole, but buyers should verify the position and any requirements for completion or approval.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

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

71out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £210,000, this detached Beighton house is priced at £173/sqf against a local average of £259/sqf — a substantial discount that makes it an attractive acquisition opportunity. The original lounge and bedrooms appear usable, while the established garden, driveway and garage add to the appeal. The main value-creation project is completing the unfinished extension, including its kitchen and shower-room areas, to make the most of the additional family accommodation. The sale is by Modern Method of Auction: bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap.

This is a heavy project rather than a cosmetic refresh: the extension has unfinished plaster and exposed wiring, and the kitchen is not functioning. The extension also lacks Building Regulations completion sign-off, so buyers should check the required approvals and mortgage suitability. The overall score is good, supported by the strong price and fundamentals, but the scale and completion requirements need careful planning.

Key opportunities

  • Complete the started extension to create additional family accommodation, including the intended fourth bedroom and shower-room space, subject to required approvals.
  • Finish and commission the incomplete kitchen area to suit the new layout and your own specification.
  • Build on the usable original lounge and bedrooms, established garden, driveway and garage to shape a larger family home.

Key risks

  • The extension is a heavy, unfinished programme with exposed wiring, incomplete plaster and fittings, and a non-functioning kitchen; plan for a full completion job rather than a cosmetic refresh.
  • The extension has no Building Regulations completion sign-off; establish what approvals and remedial work are required, and check mortgage suitability before proceeding.
