A detached bungalow in need of modernisation, with potential to extend subject to consents, standing in a good sized overgrown garden
Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom detached bungalow in Newton Abbot, Devon, presents a mixed opportunity. Located on Newtake Rise, it offers a convenient position near Newton Abbot train station and several well-regarded schools. However, the property is in need of significant modernisation. The photos clearly show cosmetic issues throughout, including peeling wallpaper and paintwork, suggesting that a budget for renovations would be essential for a buyer. While a garden is included, it is heavily overgrown and requires substantial landscaping. The list price appears to reflect the value of the property once improved. The lack of sq ft information for this property and nearby properties makes a conclusive comparative price analysis challenging. Prospective buyers should carefully weigh the costs of necessary repairs and renovations against the property’s potential value after modernisation. Overall this is a fixer-upper in a convenient location. Buyers should be aware of potential hidden issues with an older property.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
