Properties With Promise From £200k , October 2025
I think we all know that, next to houses for £500k, this is the other hot ticket in town. Here we winkle out the homes that are ready for a new life. They’ve seen some things and may be feeling a little weary, in need of a gentle injection of energy.
Many of these houses are marvellous as they are. The 1980s Chelsea townhouse is perfect and feels fitting for the week in which we lost the queen of romps, swags, and chintz. The other London house offers little in the way of bargains, but God, what a property — that’s not coming on the market every day.
Finally, these aren’t the usual fixer-uppers. They’re the pick of the bunch, the crème de la crème, and they deserve proper owners. You, ideally.
A proper find. Grade II listed, late 19th-century, semi-detached on Church Road in the old village. Rubble stone, Cotswold slate roof, stone mullions, the lot. First time to market after a long tenancy and absolutely ready for refurbishment. Open-plan living with stove, kitchen and shower room below, three bedrooms above. Established gardens behind stone walls with side access. Bring ideas and a good builder.
