Ross. Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Went to view a house on Saturday that has been converted into two flats. The conversion wasn't really thought through. While access to the upstairs flat isn't too bad, with an outside staircase fitted and one of the walls ripped out to put in a door, the staircase on the inside simply had a wall built on it at the halfway point. So the upstairs flat has a couple of stairs walking down into the wall, and the downstairs flat has a few stairs that walk up into the wall. Just looked fucking bizarre to be honest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this case the boy had a lot of interest in the house and arranged an open viewing on Saturday. From the state of the place I think he took a calculated gamble. The area is difficult to buy in and the price is about average for the size of the place, but the amount of work needing done would put the vast majority of folk off. I think he figured this was the best way to get a lot of bodies through the door and not end up arranging a f**k load of separate viewings for folk who say no as soon as they see the inside of it. We've actually made a tentative offer, 30% below the asking price. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It verges on the "Cheeky" side for sure, but the amount of time, energy and money that need put into it, I don't think it would be worth taking for anything above what I've said to the guy. If someone else thinks it is worth more then good luck to them. I expect it will sell not that far off our number, and would be amazed(Also slightly worried) if it went for the current asking price. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It gives you a bit of room for manoeuvre, and if you get it for that what you save on the asking price - which you can presumably afford - will help pay for the upgrade required. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now it is a very strange mix of 2 two bedroom places. I say strange because one is on the ground floor and first floor, while the other is entirely upstairs. The flat upstairs only has one bathroom however, which is an en-suite in the larger bedroom. Initial thought was to change the layout slightly and convert it to a 3 bedroom and 1 bedroom flat, and rent out the smaller one. The way the conversion was done originally makes this impossible, so if we buy it we'll convert back to one house and leave it at that. 18 minutes ago, Jacksgranda said: It gives you a bit of room for manoeuvre, and if you get it for that what you save on the asking price - which you can presumably afford - will help pay for the upgrade required. I'm not that fussed about it now, having seen it. The offer we have made is pretty much take it or leave it. If we get it at that price I'll be happy to spend what is needed and stay there, if they knock it back then we'll keep waiting and spend the money on something that needs very little done to it. The big selling point is the area, though that aspect of it is more important to my missus than me! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the original design for the stand at the new Meadowbank Stadium. Rejected because it was too big. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
