A vacant mid-terrace Victorian house in CV1, offered at auction and priced to reflect required works. The property has two bedrooms, gas central heating, and double glazing, providing a straightforward modernisation path for a buyer prepared to refurbish.
Set on a small plot with a rear garden, the house suits an investor or hands-on buyer aiming for rental income or resale after renovation. The accommodation is compact (approx. 681 sq ft) with a traditional layout: reception room, kitchen, bathroom, and two first-floor bedrooms. Local amenities, schools and transport links are nearby in a busy city location.
Important negatives are clear: the property needs full modernisation, the solid brick walls likely lack insulation, and it sits in a very deprived area which may affect rental values and sale timing. It will be sold at auction with an administration fee and the usual auction conditions — purchasers will exchange contracts on the fall of the hammer.
Buyers should allow for refurbishment costs, check the legal pack before bidding, and budget for potential additional works uncovered on inspection. For an investor with renovation experience, this is a low-price entry into Coventry city stock with clear scope to add value.
