new & need cost advice

[hopelessone]

hello all, totally new to this forum (hello) & need some very ballpark figures please.
I have seen a house i love BUT it needs work.
Before i invest money in a full structural survey i just need a very rough guestimate to see if its even achievable.

Its a 4 bed victorian detatched
I think it will need the following

Re-roofing - some missing slates & i dont think there is any felt.
New central heating boiler, although all the switches & controls in airing cupboard look new.
Poss re wiring
updating existing outside loo & creating access from iside to make downstairs loo.
stripping all walls & ceiling paper & replastering if needed ( 4 beds, 2 large receptions & kitchen)
Tiling fro bathroom, new bathroom & kitchen fitted (not including cost of bathroom & kitchen i have prices for them)

do you think i cna get all of the above done for under £20k or am i deluded?? Thanks

Maybe you should try a " how do i answer posts without being rude" forum.

sorry but it is a DIY forum. If you want advice on how to do a job yourself, someone will help.

You might get away with £20,000 if you do all the work yourself, if not double it.

Do prioritise the work that needs to be done - in other words, make sure the house is completely weather tight and structurally good before any internal work commences.
This involves the roof, doors and windows, naturally enough and do check for any rising damp too.
I'm afraid your 20k seems way to light when you consider that the roof itself means major work....at a complete random guess you could maybe get the roof and heating done for that sum but of course no one here can see the property!
A bit at a time.....and that survey is essential. Check out surrounding properties to see if they have had any nasties like subsidence etc.

Thank you everyone, i hadnt really read many of the other posts before posting myself to get a feel for the sort of questions asked.
The windows etc are all new as are all the guttering, facias etc, its just the roof that seems shot.

I will get a full survey before proceeding thanks again.
