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

74out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £125,000, this is a notably cheap entry point for the area: about £126 per sq ft against a local average of £209. The separate lounge and kitchen/diner, utility space, four-piece bathroom and no-onward-chain sale give the project a useful starting point, while the dated finishes across several rooms leave scope to refresh and personalise. The renovation range is £6,000–£14,000; visible wall deterioration and staining in places should be investigated and made good, and the compact rear yard could be tidied.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated decoration and flooring across several rooms.
  • Investigate and make good the visibly deteriorated, stained wall, then redecorate.
  • Tidy and improve the enclosed rear yard, while making the most of the separate lounge, kitchen/diner and utility space.
