Any ideas?

Hello, looking to pick some brains! We're looking at buying a house that needs a fair bit of upgrading. It's an old 5 bed semi-detached, previously split into two flats that has been half put back together.
Basic essentials that would need done include:
Complete rewire and new fuseboard
New boiler and radiators
New bathroom x 2 (my friend will install as a favour)
New kitchen (we'll fit it ourselves)
Treating a small area of wet rot.
New floor boards.
Roof repairs (from what we had done on this roof, I'm estimating around £1500)
If we get the house, we'll have around 20k immediately from the sale of our current home available, and have access to a further loan of 20k in around a year. Does this sound remotely plausible? Does anyone have an idea of how much all these things cost?
We'd do a lot of the labour etc ourselves, and are aware that this could be an expensive business! The house is idyllic though, great location, huge garden, enormous rooms......don't want to get too carried away though, especially if someone comes along and tells me I'm looking at nearer 80k to do the work!
Greatful for any advice thanks

Were having new boiler and all new rads £3,400.
Kitchens and bathrooms you can pay as little or as much as you like. Wickes have a smart price range, you can buy a toilet for £50 if you want!
Not sure about electrics.

Thanks for the reply. Feeling relatively optimisitic that we could bring it in within budget. Gone over the home report thoroughly, but will get some trades people in aswell to give us official quotes. Just feels a bit weird to be inviting lots of builders, plumbers and joiners etc round to a house that we don't actually own!

If you most of the labour,etc it could be done for min 25k but a lot depends on specification on kitchens an bathroom, I installed a kitchen for 1k but you can spend 25k on kitchen alone!
