Offered for sale at auction, this Victorian end-terrace is arranged as two self-contained flats, presented as an investment/refurbishment opportunity in Seaforth between Bootle and Crosby. The freehold property sits on a small plot, has double glazing installed after 2002, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, and both flats are rated EPC C — a practical starting point for rental occupation once any works are complete.
The property's strengths are clear for a hands-on investor: two flats under one title, local transport links to Liverpool city centre, nearby schools with good Ofsted ratings, and low council tax bands. Finance is available for buyers who need it and the freehold tenure removes leasehold complication.
Important negatives are candid: the area shows high crime and very high deprivation indicators; the building is solid brick with assumed no wall insulation and likely needs internal refurbishment and modernisation to maximise rental value. Buying at auction is a binding legal commitment with immediate deposit, a buyer's premium (£1,500 inc VAT) and an administration fee (2.5% inc VAT, min £2,500). Inspect and review the legal pack closely before bidding.
