Description

A three-bedroom terraced house at the end of a small cul-de-sac near Tattenham Corner. The property has been in the same ownership for 55 years and is offered with no ongoing chain. Its accommodation includes a double-aspect living room, a kitchen/breakfast room, a ground-floor cloakroom, three double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The house is described as liveable, with scope for updating over time. Outside, there is a generous driveway, covered side access and a private rear garden with a brick-built store. Tattenham Corner station and local shops are a few hundred metres away, with Epsom Downs and the racecourse also nearby.

Grade CPotential opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

A tidy, liveable three-bedroom home with a genuine blank-canvas feel: the kitchen, bathroom and general finishes are dated but usable, giving the next owner scope to modernise without taking on a major refurbishment. The spacious double-aspect living room, generous driveway and private garden with a brick-built store add useful substance, while the garden could be refreshed to make more of its existing paved and planted areas.

At £550,000, the asking price works out at £506 per sq ft, below the local average of £534, which is a positive starting point for a light project. The overall opportunity is moderate rather than standout: the indicative £12,000 renovation midpoint brings the purchase-plus-renovation figure to £562,000, close to the implied local average value, before fees or other purchase costs. Tattenham Corner station, local shops and Epsom Downs are nearby, and the head-of-cul-de-sac position is another appealing feature.

Key opportunities

  • Update the dated but functional kitchen, bathroom and general finishes at a light-project scale.
  • Refresh the private rear garden, making better use of the existing paved area, planting and brick-built store.
  • Make the most of the three double bedrooms, double-aspect living room and generous driveway in a convenient cul-de-sac location.

Key risks

  • Some roof tiles above the entrance look uneven or weathered in the photos; whether any repair is needed is not established.
