74out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £350,000, this four-bedroom terrace is priced well below the local average per square foot, giving the project a strong value starting point. It offers three floors of accommodation, valley views, period fireplaces and decorative features, plus a rear garden, garage and off-street parking. The dated interiors create scope to refresh the living spaces and bedrooms, while the visibly tired kitchen and bathroom are clear candidates for improvement. The established stepped garden also offers room to tidy and enhance the outdoor space.

The renovation range is £38,000–£72,000, so the final result will depend on the work required, including checking the back-boiler and the visible deterioration to the bathroom ceiling and lower wall areas. Overall, the low entry price and distinctive period features make this a good renovation opportunity, with a moderate project to plan and budget for.

Key opportunities

  • Modernise the visibly dated kitchen and bathroom, with the bathroom’s ceiling and lower-wall deterioration included in the scope.
  • Refresh dated decoration and flooring while retaining and showcasing the period fireplaces, cornicing and picture rails.
  • Improve the established stepped garden and make the most of the garage, parking and valley outlook.

Key risks

  • The bathroom has visible ceiling deterioration and lower-wall/baseboard staining or damage; investigate the cause and extent.
  • The stated back-boiler is the current central-heating source, but its condition is unknown.
