78out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £240,000, this is priced well below the local average per square foot, making the guide an attractive starting point for a value-focused project. The period fireplaces, joinery and distinctive exterior give this three-bedroom house character to build on, while dated finishes across several rooms offer scope for a medium-scale update. The older kitchen and shower room could also be refreshed or replaced to suit the next owner.
The listing is by auction: bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap. External staining and discolouration around parts of the shower enclosure are worth investigating, but the supplied views show no obvious roof failure.
Key opportunities
- Retain and highlight the period fireplaces, joinery and architectural detailing while updating dated decoration across several rooms.
- Refresh the worn flooring and older finishes, with the kitchen and shower room offering scope for tailored updates.
- Make the most of the front and rear gardens and driveway parking; the paved rear terraces and planting provide a base for improvement.
Key risks
- Investigate the visible staining below the rear rainwater pipe and on the rear elevation to establish its cause.
- Check the discolouration around parts of the shower enclosure and assess the condition of its fittings.
