Recommended next step

What stands out

• ●Significant modernisation likely required
• ●Extended time on the market

Worth checking

• Extent of renovation required

  A survey will help clarify what work is needed and provide a basis for budgeting before you make an offer.

• Why the property has not sold

  This property has been on the market for an extended period. The listing history is worth discussing with the agent to understand how the sale has progressed and whether anything has changed.

• Extension or conversion feasibility and planning requirements

  The listing suggests potential to extend or convert part of the property. This is not confirmed — check feasibility, any planning constraints, and whether formal planning advice has already been sought, before factoring this into your decision.

What to prepare for

• Budget for significant renovation work: arrange a survey and obtain outline quotes before making an offer.

  A survey will clarify the scope of works required. Knowing the likely cost before offering gives you concrete figures to weigh against the asking price.

• Confirm feasibility with the local planning authority or an architect before relying on any mentioned extension or conversion potential.

  Mentioned potential does not guarantee permission would be granted or that the work is achievable as described — independent confirmation protects you from assuming space that may not materialise.

What we couldn’t verify

• Boiler installation date and service history

  The age and maintenance history of the heating system were not mentioned, which is common but worth establishing.

• Roof replacement history

  No information about when the roof was last replaced or its current condition was provided.

Assessment

This property requires significant renovation, which is essential to understand before proceeding. The potential for extension or conversion into multiple apartments adds an intriguing layer, but this is contingent on confirming feasibility with local planning authorities. Given the extensive work needed, a thorough survey will be crucial to clarify the scope of renovations and to budget effectively. The current state of the property presents both a challenge and an opportunity for buyers willing to invest in its transformation.
