Description
This four-bedroom mid-terrace house is arranged over three floors and includes two reception rooms, a fitted kitchen and an enclosed rear garden. The accommodation offers scope for refurbishment, with the kitchen, bathroom and separate WC all described as suitable for updating. The property is being sold to cash buyers only.
The ground floor has an entrance hall leading to a front reception room and a rear dining room with access to the kitchen and garden. On the first floor are two bedrooms, a bathroom and a separate WC. Two further bedrooms occupy the second floor. The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with a patio and fenced boundaries.
The property is close to Leicester city centre, local amenities, schools and transport links. Buyers should make their own checks on the condition of the building, services and legal title, as the agent has not tested the equipment or verified the title.
WHOTS analysis
Our WHOTS verdict
An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
51out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity
Confidence: LOW
This four-bedroom, three-floor terrace has an enclosed rear garden and two reception rooms, giving a renovator a useful canvas to rework. The photographed interiors are markedly worn, with dated finishes, heavily marked floors and ceiling staining in several rooms; the kitchen and bathroom also offer clear scope for replacement and redesign. The front brick elevation appears generally intact in the available views.
The score is 51/100, grade D: the project has good fundamentals and location, but its overall opportunity remains limited. Floor area is missing, so value versus local £/sqf cannot yet be judged, and the ceiling staining needs investigation. The listing is cash buyers only.
Key opportunities
- Rework the two reception rooms and three-floor layout to make better use of the generous accommodation.
- Create a fresh interior scheme, including a replacement kitchen and bathroom, renewed flooring and redecoration.
- Make the enclosed rear garden a more usable outdoor space with straightforward clearing and improvement.
Key risks
- Marked floors, worn finishes and staining across several rooms point to a heavy full-interior programme; plan for a coordinated rebuild rather than a cosmetic refresh.
- Ceiling staining is visible in multiple rooms and should be investigated to establish its cause and any required repairs.
- Floor area is missing, so value against local £/sqf cannot yet be assessed.
