A vacant five-bedroom semi-detached house offering flexible accommodation and clear short-term investment potential. The property sits on a decent plot with a fenced rear garden and ample room for communal living or family use. It will be sold at public auction on 9th October 2025; bidding options include telephone, proxy and online.
This building is of non-standard BISF construction — purchasers should note this affects mortgage availability and may require specialist surveys. Internal details suggest fabric work and modernisation will be needed: wall insulation is assumed absent, double glazing installation date is unknown, and some refurbishment is likely to bring the property to contemporary standards.
Planning potential exists for HMO conversion subject to obtaining the necessary permissions, offering an uplift for investors. The property benefits from mains gas central heating, low local crime, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, and is close to several well-rated primary and secondary schools, making it suitable for rental demand or a family refurbishment project.
Important: sale is by public auction and the property is marked with a public notice/repossession. Buyers should carry out their own due diligence, including structural and mortgage checks for non-standard construction.
