Description

This freehold end-of-terrace house has three bedrooms and just under 90 sq m of internal accommodation arranged over two floors, with a private rear garden and a gated garden at the front. It is set on a residential road within walking distance of Newington Green and Dalston, with Dalston Kingsland, Dalston Junction and Highbury & Islington stations accessible nearby. The ground floor has an open kitchen and living area with doors to the rear garden. The kitchen includes a separate pantry, and the house also has built-in and hallway storage. Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a smaller third bedroom that can also serve as a study, nursery or guest room. A garden outbuilding provides additional storage. The listing describes the house as being in very good condition, while noting scope for a future owner to update it. A single-storey rear extension or garden room is suggested, subject to the necessary consents. The combination of freehold ownership, three bedrooms and private outdoor space offers a basis to consider future improvements, with feasibility and permissions to be checked.

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 light-touch project with a lot already working in its favour: a bright living space opening onto a private garden, a functional kitchen and bathroom, and the flexibility of three bedrooms in a freehold end-of-terrace house. The worn, flaking bedroom floorboards and garden that could use a tidy-up offer straightforward ways to improve presentation and put a personal stamp on the home.

At £780,000, the asking price is close to the local average at £816 per sq ft versus £809, so the price is broadly reasonable rather than a clear bargain. The overall score is a weaker 56/100, with limited headroom against the local-average value estimate; the house’s light project scope, outdoor space and well-connected Newington Green and Dalston setting are its main attractions.

Key opportunities

  • Refinish or replace the visibly worn bedroom floorboards to lift the presentation.
  • Tidy the lawn and planted borders to make better use of the private rear garden.
  • Explore the suggested rear extension or garden-room potential, subject to consents and feasibility.
