Our WHOTS verdict

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

73out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £110,000, this three-bedroom terraced house is priced at £159 per sq ft, well below the local average of £347 per sq ft. That gives buyers an unusually low entry point for a Chippenham project, with the asking price a clear strength of the opportunity.

The photographed interiors offer scope for a medium-scale refresh: worn flooring and marked walls can be tackled alongside the tired kitchen presentation, while the rear garden and substantial timber workshop provide room to improve the outside space. Double glazing and gas central heating are noted, and no clear major structural failure is visible; the partly seen roof looks weathered, so its condition merits checking. This is an online auction, and bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap.

Key opportunities

  • Acquire at a guide price substantially below the local £/sq ft average.
  • Refresh the worn flooring and marked decoration across the photographed living and bedroom spaces.
  • Improve the garden's weathered surfaces and make use of the substantial timber outbuilding or workshop.
