To add to what aggi and silly_savage said. If your budget over around 350k you are defintely not limited to 'doer uppers'. My place is eastville (less than 10min cycle to St werbs, 15 to the centre and walk to centre in 30-40mins) was was 235k in 2019 and good to go, 3 bed (2bed made to 3 so one room is v small) with garden, just improving what we want. House in my road sold for 245 this year, seemed to be in decent condition, just need updating.
Maybe just need to widen the search a bit? St werbs and montpelier are nice but living in shithole/building site will be fucking shite!
