Description

This three-bedroom Victorian terrace is set in a traffic-free position in Newnham, around a mile from Cambridge city centre, and is offered with no onward chain. The house retains period details including high ceilings, sash windows, fireplaces, decorative cornicing and ceiling roses. Its accommodation is described as well maintained but in need of modernisation, with scope to expand subject to the necessary consents.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

56out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This is a well-maintained Victorian terrace with a strong Newnham setting and plenty of character: the bay window, fireplaces, sash windows and decorative ceilings give a buyer a distinctive canvas. The work looks light and mainly cosmetic, with dated finishes to update; the kitchen has older timber units and patterned tiles but appears functional. The enclosed rear courtyard and the option to reinstate the principal bedroom’s former two-room layout add useful scope.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated finishes and carpets while retaining the Victorian features that give the rooms their character.
  • Consider reverting the principal bedroom to its former two-room layout.
  • Make the most of the enclosed rear courtyard and explore the described expansion scope, subject to necessary consents.
