Description
Offered at auction, this three-bedroom mid-terraced house is being sold as a renovation project. The ground floor has two reception rooms and a kitchen in a rear lean-to, with access from the kitchen to the back garden. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. A driveway provides off-street parking at the front.
The property is described as being in poor condition and will require work to bring it up to date. It may suit a buyer prepared to refurbish and adapt the existing accommodation. Dagenham Park secondary school, local shops and bus routes are nearby.
The sale is through the Modern Method of Auction, with a 56-day reservation period. Buyers should review the buyer information pack and the auction terms, including the reservation fee and other stated charges, before bidding. Mortgage buyers are advised to check the property with their lender before bidding.
WHOTS analysis
Our WHOTS verdict
An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
48out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: LOW
At £260,000, this three-bedroom terrace has the makings of a substantial transformation: two reception rooms, off-street parking and an existing rear garden give you a useful base, while the photographed interiors offer scope to reshape the home to your taste. The lean-to kitchen is particularly tired, and finishes are dated across several rooms; the overgrown garden also needs reclaiming. No clear major structural failure is visible, though the photos do not establish the condition of the roof or exterior fabric.
The overall WHOTS score is 48/100 (E, Low Opportunity). Floor area is missing, so value versus local £/sqf cannot yet be judged; the price/value and economics scores are therefore neutral rather than evidence that the asking price is cheap or dear. This is a heavy project, and the cash-buyer requirement is relevant to who can pursue it.
Key opportunities
- Rework the two reception rooms and refresh the dated finishes across the photographed interiors to create a more cohesive home.
- Replace the worn lean-to kitchen and update the distinctive pale-blue-tiled bathroom as part of a broader, tailored interior scheme.
- Clear and improve the rear garden, making better use of the existing outdoor space; the front drive already provides off-street parking.
Key risks
- A heavy programme is needed: tired finishes across several rooms, a poor-condition lean-to kitchen and an overgrown garden make this a substantial multi-area project, not a cosmetic refresh.
- The roof and exterior fabric condition are not established by the photographs, so they need checking as part of due diligence.
