Description

Offered at auction, this four-bedroom detached house in Chedworth extends to approximately 1,872 sq ft and occupies grounds of around 0.416 acres, with valley views. The traditional reconstituted-stone property has accommodation over two floors, arranged in a reversed layout. The ground floor includes a porch, hall, cloakroom, utility room, bedroom and substantial store. Upstairs are an open-plan living area with kitchen, a conservatory, two further bedrooms, a principal bedroom with en suite and a family bathroom. Outside, the property has gardens to the front and rear, a redundant swimming pool, garage and parking. The listing describes the house as requiring refurbishment, offering scope for a buyer to assess and update the existing accommodation. Chedworth has a primary school, village hall, playing field, cricket ground and tennis courts; Northleach, with a wider range of everyday amenities, is about four miles away. The village lies within the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and much of it is in a conservation area. The sale is by live-streamed unconditional auction, with binding contracts exchanged at the point of sale. Buyers should review the legal pack and auction terms, including the stated deposit and buyer’s fee, and make their own enquiries before bidding.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

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

80out of 100
Grade AStrong opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This is a strong value-led project: the £465,000 guide price is around £250 per sq ft, well below the local average of £416, creating an opportunity to acquire a substantial detached Cotswold home at a comparatively low entry price. The stone-faced house has four bedrooms, a garage, parking, gardens and valley views; the visible interiors look usable but dated, while the overgrown grounds, aged conservatory and redundant pool offer scope to refresh and reshape the property. Bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap.

The work appears light in scale, with the clearest gains coming from updating finishes and tackling the garden. Limited photo coverage makes the renovation assessment further provisional.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated living-room finishes and older kitchen fittings while retaining the usable-looking spaces.
  • Clear and improve the overgrown gardens, with scope to make better use of the substantial grounds.
  • Explore how the aged conservatory and redundant pool area could be improved to suit a future owner's needs.
