Three-bedroom project with generous garden and good school catchment — refurbishment required.
Freehold three-bedroom end-of-terrace with no forward chain
A three-bedroom end-of-terrace in Cobham Drive, Weymouth, offered freehold and with no onward chain. The house sits on a decent plot with a larger-than-typical enclosed rear garden and side access — a real asset for families, gardeners or those planning an extension (subject to consents). The accommodation includes a generous lounge/diner, kitchen, ground-floor WC, three bedrooms and a separate bathroom; room sizes are generally small-to-average for the type.
The property requires full refurbishment throughout: cosmetic updating, kitchen and bathroom renewal and likely upgrades to insulation and electrics. Walls are cavity construction with no insulation assumed; buyers should allow budget for thermal improvement and general modernisation. There is a boiler and radiator system on mains gas and double glazing of unknown age, but additional energy-efficiency work is likely needed.
Positioned within a school catchment and close to local shops and transport links, the home suits an investor, first-time buyer willing to renovate, or a purchaser seeking a project to add value. Note this is a corporate sale with a 28-day exchange expectation and above-average local crime levels — both factors to consider when planning refurbishment and resale or rental strategies.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, no flood risk, cheap council tax banding, excellent mobile signal and average broadband speeds. The combination of plot size, no forward chain and central location creates clear scope for a worthwhile renovation, but accurate costings and surveys are recommended before committing.
