Starting bid £85,000 — sold via online auction
Being offered at auction with a starting bid of £85,000, this Victorian mid-terrace presents clear refurbishment potential for an investor or hands-on buyer. The property includes two bedrooms plus a large loft room, two reception rooms and an enclosed rear garden — useful for rental appeal or adding living space.
The house has double glazing and mains gas central heating, with original period features such as a bay window and fireplaces. Construction is solid brick (likely uninsulated), and the internal layout includes lounge, dining room, kitchen, four-piece bathroom and a loft room accessed from bedroom two. Overall size is modest at about 861 sq ft on a small plot.
Significant renovation is required: fixtures and finishes are dated, carpets and fittings need replacing and the property will benefit from modernisation and insulation improvements. Buyers should note auction-specific costs and commitments: a 5% non-refundable exchange deposit, a reservation fee (up to 6% inc VAT, minimum £7,200), and adherence to verification/AML procedures. A legal pack is available and professional legal advice is strongly recommended.
With low local crime, good broadband and nearby schools rated Good, the location supports long-term rental or resale after refurbishment. The lot is chain-free and freehold, making it straightforward to acquire quickly for those comfortable with auction purchase terms and renovation work.
