Our WHOTS verdict

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

60out of 100
Grade CPotential opportunity

Confidence: LOW

At £225,000, this former Highworth Police Station is priced exceptionally cheaply against the local £/sqf benchmark, making the acquisition price a clear strength. Full planning permission is already in place to convert it into a detached three-bedroom home, and the existing brick building, established access, parking and generous plot provide a distinctive starting point. The exterior looks intact in the submitted views, but the interior and hidden elements are not shown, so the scope and economics still need careful checking.

Key opportunities

  • Turn the former Police Station into the approved contemporary detached home, with open-plan living and three double bedrooms.
  • Make use of the approximately 583 sqm site, established vehicle access and off-road parking, with scope to shape the private garden areas.
  • Planning elevation drawings and full permission provide a defined conversion scheme while the existing building offers a starting shell.

Key risks

  • The interior and services are not shown, and the photographs do not establish roof integrity or hidden building condition; conversion costs and programme therefore need thorough investigation.
