Description
Offered at auction, this two-bedroom, two-storey house has two reception rooms, a kitchen, a ground-floor WC and an en-suite to one bedroom. The kitchen is described as not fitted, and the property requires modernisation. A rear garden is included, and there may be scope to extend, subject to the necessary consents.
The house is vacant and is presented as an opportunity for builders, developers or owner-occupiers prepared to undertake refurbishment. Leyton and Walthamstow shopping facilities are nearby, as are Leyton Jubilee Park and Hackney Marshes. Transport links include Leyton Midland Road Overground station and Leytonstone Underground station on the Central line.
WHOTS analysis
Our WHOTS verdict
An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
47out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: LOW
This is a heavy, full-gut project rather than a cosmetic refresh: photographed rooms show extensive missing and damaged finishes, worn floorboards, a large area of missing ceiling finish, and a severely deteriorated bathroom/service area. The two reception rooms, two bedrooms and rear garden give a clear starting point for reshaping and improving the house, while the front elevation and roof look broadly intact in the limited exterior image. The rear garden is heavily overgrown and would also benefit from substantial clearance and improvement.
The £375,000 asking price cannot yet be judged against local £/sqf because the floor area is missing. The listing is an auction, so bidding may take the hammer above the guide and the eventual price may not stay at this level. The 46/100, grade E score reflects a low overall opportunity, with condition and incomplete value information limiting the assessment despite the location and scope to create a substantially improved home.
Key opportunities
- Rework the two reception rooms and two-bedroom layout as part of a full interior rebuild, creating a coherent home from the existing footprint.
- Install a fitted kitchen and renew the severely deteriorated bathroom area, with the chance to choose a consistent specification throughout.
- Clear and improve the rear garden; the listing also mentions extension potential subject to the necessary consents, though no feasibility evidence is supplied.
Key risks
- Stripped and damaged interiors, including a large area of missing ceiling finish and a severely deteriorated bathroom/service area, make this a full interior rebuild with a substantial programme rather than a refresh.
