This is a substantial project with a useful starting layout: three bedrooms, two reception rooms and a rear garden, plus extension potential subject to consent. The photographed interiors are heavily worn, with marked walls, tired floors and dated fittings, while the garden is overgrown—there is clear scope to reshape the house and bring the outside space back into use.

The score is 49/100 (E, Low Opportunity), with the main constraint being the scale of the work rather than a proven price disadvantage. Floor area is missing, so value versus local £/sqf cannot yet be judged; the £90,000 asking price alone is not enough to call it cheap or dear. The listing is described as an auction sale, so this is a guide price, and bidding can take the hammer above the guide, meaning the eventual price may not stay at this level.
