This two-bedroom terraced house in Luddendenfoot, Halifax, presents a mixed picture. The property is situated in a convenient location with access to well-regarded schools (including an ‘Outstanding’ rated academy) and train stations. The small, enclosed garden adds to its appeal. However, the property undoubtedly requires a program of renovation. While some areas, such as the bathroom, are relatively modern, other parts show their age. There’s visible evidence of damp patches on ceilings and walls, dated wallpaper, and older features like the fireplace. This property is therefore best suited to a buyer willing to undertake significant renovation work, or an investor looking to renovate and rent out. The listing price is within the range of other nearby properties on Booth House Terrace, albeit at the lower end; given the amount of renovation required, this presents something of a balance. A thorough survey is highly recommended to assess the full extent of necessary repairs before committing to a purchase. The absence of square footage information limits a precise assessment of value per square foot, making a definitive statement on whether the price represents excellent value problematic. However, based on comparable sales in the area, and factoring in the renovation requirements, the price seems reasonable, though not necessarily exceptional value.

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