This two-bedroom semi-detached house in Carlisle’s Stanwix area presents a mixed bag for potential buyers. Its location is a significant advantage, offering convenient access to transport links, schools, and the city center. The proximity to Stanwix School, rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted, is particularly appealing to families. However, the property itself requires considerable modernisation. The interior photos reveal dated fixtures and fittings, worn flooring, and a bathroom that needs updating. The small, overgrown garden offers some outdoor space but will need significant landscaping.

While the £100,000 asking price might seem high initially given the required renovations, comparable properties in the area that do not require this level of improvement are higher in cost. Hence, the list price potentially presents a reasonable entry point to the Carlisle market. The lack of information about square footage does impact this assessment. A thorough survey is highly recommended to assess potential structural issues and accurately calculate renovation costs before making an offer. The property could be a viable investment with a potential for increasing value after upgrading but careful consideration should be given to those costs.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
