4 Bed Through-Terraced Refurbishment In Meanwood

Issue: student market moved away from this area, specification did not meet professional requirements, rental was decreasing and two options were to rent out at lower rent, or improve the property for current market.

Works: New kitchen, redecorated throughout, updated bathroom tiles and decor, new flooring and beds. Now: Well specified professional property, rental of between £750 to £900 PCM.

Living Room: A little dated, old curtains, medium quality carpet resulting in forgettable room.

Scope of Works: Plaster where required and relining, new décor, modern laminate and modern blinds.

Living Room Now: Modern inviting living room with feature wall, white décor elsewhere to increase lightness of the room.

Kitchen: Dated kitchen, awkward shape due to chimney, ill fitting carpet, whole feel was quite student and not up to modern professional tastes.

Scope of Works: Strip out all fittings, remove chimney breast and leave structurally sound, install new kitchen, plaster walls and new flooring.

Kitchen Post Works: Modern inviting kitchen, modern black metro splash back, oak laminate flooring, light and airy with dish washer, washing machine, integrated electric oven and gas hob.

Bathroom: Dated and unattractive blue tiled bathroom, white three piece suite.

Scope of Works: To re-use the existing bathroom suit, but update bathroom to be more in line with current professional requirements via new plaster to walls, tiling, vinyl and décor.

Bathroom Post Works: Much more inviting bathroom, white décor, stone effect tiles with board, chrome heated towel rail.

Bedroom: Nice sized bedroom but dated décor included woodchip, old curtains and tired carpets, furnishings fundamentally good.

Scope of Works: To strip all walls and ceiling, make good and reline, decorated with neutral colours and feature wall, new carpet, blinds and double glazed window.

Bedroom Post Works: A much more modern room, clean and simple, but instantly appealing.
