Before & After: Renovated and ready for new owners

26.10.2023

In the heart of Treeton, Rotherham, number 8 Station Road is back on the market after undergoing a fantastic renovation project.

The impressive family home has had a total revamp since it first went under the hammer with Auction House South Yorkshire last year.

Advertised as a “perfect opportunity for a developer looking to add value to the property,” 8 Station Road was listed in an unconditional online auction, with buyers using eBay style bidding to secure the home.

The three-bedroom end-of-terrace property was guided at £50,000 but with fifteen bidders competing over a 24-hour period, it eventually sold for £124,000 on 16th August 2022.

Fourteen months and an extensive renovation later, the property is back on the open market for £200,000.

Gone are the green carpets and Artex ceilings and in their place a stylish family home with a modern kitchen and sleek flooring, among other upgrades.

   

Set over three floors, the home’s interior has been completely transformed with new additions including a master bedroom and ensuite on the second floor.

The first-floor family bathroom is almost unrecognisable - the tired suite has been upgraded with a streamlined and contemporary style. With full tiling and ceiling spotlights, the new layout maximises the available space.

   

On the ground floor, a spacious and bright living room can be found at the front of the house. The room benefits from ample natural light coming through a double-glazed bay window. The outdated green carpet has been removed and replaced with striking hardwood flooring, instantly revitalising the space. As a nod to the property’s past, the original gas fire still stands, with the darkened stones providing a modern twist to the charming feature. 

   

Outside, the family home has both front and rear gardens, with an enclosed patio and large brick-built garage at the back of the property.

Alongside its newly revamped interior, 8 Station Road also benefits from being in a desirable location. Situated in Treeton, within walking distance of Waverley Lakes and Park, the area is popular with families and first-time buyers, thanks to its excellent transport links and local primary school.
