49out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This is a substantial renovation canvas: the separate living and dining rooms, remaining period character and generous rear garden backing onto allotments give the project some individuality, while the driveway is a useful practical feature. The visible interiors need a broad programme of modernisation, including worn flooring and decoration, an old-fashioned kitchen and dated bathroom finishes; the garden also needs clearing. The £45,000–£85,000 works range reflects a full project rather than a cosmetic refresh.

At £425/sqf, the asking price is 3.2% below the local average, which is a positive starting point for a project buyer. However, purchase plus the renovation midpoint comes to about £440,000, so all-in costs look tight against the local benchmark; that comparison is not a renovated GDV and excludes fees and stamp duty. The overall opportunity is therefore limited despite the plot and scope to reshape and improve the home.

Key opportunities

  • Rework the separate living and dining rooms and modernise the dated kitchen to create a more cohesive everyday layout.
  • The generous rear garden backing onto allotments offers scope for clearance and improvement, with extension potential stated subject to consents and feasibility.
  • Retain and bring out the period features while updating worn finishes across the visible rooms.

Key risks

  • The visible rooms have worn carpets, dated finishes and debris, alongside an old kitchen and overgrown garden; the £45,000–£85,000 works range makes this a full-gut budget and programme rather than a cosmetic refresh.
  • Purchase plus the renovation midpoint looks tight against local benchmarks, limiting the apparent headroom before fees and stamp duty.
