Confidence: LOW
This vacant three-bedroom terrace in Freshwater offers a clear full-house project, with a separate lounge and kitchen/dining area, plus front and rear gardens to bring back into use. The photographed interiors show worn and dated finishes across several rooms, including damaged wall surfaces, tired flooring, and an old-fashioned kitchen and bathroom; the gardens are also overgrown. That leaves plenty of scope to reshape the interior presentation and improve the outdoor spaces, while the visible exterior shows no obvious major structural failure.
The £125,000 asking price cannot yet be judged against local £/sqf values because the floor area is missing. The listing is marketed through auction: bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not remain at this level.
Key opportunities
- Use the three-bedroom layout, separate lounge and kitchen/dining area as a starting point for a coordinated interior update.
- Replace the dated kitchen and worn bathroom finishes to give the main living and service areas a more contemporary feel.
- Clear and improve both overgrown gardens, making better use of the front and rear outdoor spaces.
Key risks
- The worn finishes, damaged wall surfaces and stained exposed floorboards across several photographed areas point to a heavy, multi-room programme; plan for a full interior rebuild rather than a cosmetic refresh.
- Dark staining on exposed floorboards and some ceiling discoloration need investigation to establish their cause and extent.
