Property Oracle says ..
This five-bedroom Edwardian terraced house located on St James Street in Okehampton, Devon, presents a compelling investment opportunity for those seeking a large family home or a potential rental investment, providing they are comfortable undertaking renovations. The property boasts substantial living space across two floors and some original features that add character. The house includes several bedrooms, two bathrooms and a small kitchen. While the property’s age is apparent and some modernisation is needed to bring it to current standards of living, the significant square footage for the price point may appeal to buyers interested in a hands-on project. The proximity to local amenities, including Okehampton College and primary schools, is a significant benefit, increasing the property’s potential value. However, it is important to note the absence of a large garden, or indeed any green space. This may be a drawback for some buyers. The location on St James Street places it within easy reach of the railway station, although this is not a high-speed line which must be taken into consideration. Buyers should thoroughly consider the costs associated with renovations and maintenance before making an offer. Ultimately, this property’s appeal will be dependent on the individual buyer’s willingness to handle a renovation project, offsetting the need for significant investment against the large space offered at what appears to be a competitive price point for the area.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
