Description

The accommodation includes a front lounge with concertina doors to a separate dining room, a kitchen and ground-floor WC. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a bathroom. The property is described as requiring major refurbishment, giving purchasers scope to modernise the existing accommodation. The listing also notes potential to extend, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
Outside, the house has a private rear garden, a front driveway and a detached garage with power and lighting. Shenfield Broadway and Shenfield railway station are both stated to be around 0.9 miles away, with local schools nearby. The property is to remain on the market until exchange.

Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
This detached three-bedroom house offers a substantial blank-canvas project, with a private drive, detached garage and long rear garden providing useful assets to work around. The photographed interiors show severe wear, staining and debris in several rooms; the kitchen and bathroom are also in poor condition, while boarded exterior openings need checking. Clearing the overgrown garden and reworking the interior could create a home to your own specification, with the listing also mentioning possible extension subject to planning permission.
The price is the main constraint: at £625,000, the asking price is about 10% above the local average per square foot, and the asking price plus a mid-to-substantial programme of works leaves the overall outlay stretched against local benchmarks for this floor area. That comparison is against current local average value, not a forecast of the finished home’s value. The location near Shenfield station and Broadway is a positive, but the numbers make this a demanding project rather than a strong-value buy.
Key opportunities
- Rework the lounge and dining areas and modernise the interior to create a more cohesive home tailored to your needs.
- The detached garage, private drive and long rear garden give the property useful outdoor and storage assets; clearance would make the garden easier to assess and improve.
- The listing cites potential to extend subject to planning permission, offering a possibility to explore rather than an established development opportunity.
Key risks
- Severe wear, staining and debris across several interior rooms, together with poor visible kitchen and bathroom condition, make this a heavy full-interior programme rather than a cosmetic refresh.
- The asking price is above the local £/sqf average, and the purchase plus substantial works leaves costs stretched against current local benchmarks for this floor area.
- Boarded window and door openings need inspection to establish the condition of the openings and surrounding fabric; the overgrown garden also limits assessment of its surfaces and boundaries.
- The all-in picture is soft when the asking price sits alongside the indicated works scale — around 19% above what similar-sized stock commands locally today; we have not assumed a post-renovation resale figure.
