Elevated from the road this THREE BEDROOM SEMI DETACHED HOUSE now requires a program of renovation and improvement, offering great potential for new owners to inject their own taste and style.
Property Oracle says ..
This three-bedroom property in Watcombe, Torquay, presents a mixed bag. Its location is advantageous, being close to well-regarded schools and within reach of amenities. However, the property is in need of substantial modernisation. The interior décor is dated, with worn carpets, outdated wallpaper, and kitchens and bathrooms requiring complete refurbishment. The garden, while present and reasonably sized, is overgrown and requires attention. The presence of several greenhouses suggests potential for horticultural enthusiasts. The property’s list price seems competitive within the context of similar properties in the area, particularly for buyers seeking a project. Potential buyers should factor in the significant cost of renovation when considering their offer. The property offers good potential for capital appreciation once renovated, however, the considerable upfront investment should be carefully weighed against the potential return.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
