Period stone home with garden — auction sale offering strong upside for refurb.
Vacant 2-bedroom Victorian detached house with garden and driveway
A vacant Victorian two-bedroom detached house on Ardross Road, offered freehold and sold at auction. The property mixes period stone character with generous room proportions, including a living room, family room, sunroom, dining kitchen, ground-floor bathroom and an upstairs shower room. It sits on a traditional plot with driveway and garden and benefits from excellent mobile signal and fast broadband.
This lot is marketed at a significant discount to the home report and has clear upside for buyers able to invest in cosmetic updating and reconfiguration. The house is well suited to a family seeking a character home near local amenities and outdoor opportunities, or an investor targeting long-term capital growth in the area.
Buyers should note practical drawbacks: the property will be sold at auction (fast timescale), the wider area is recorded as very deprived, and local council tax is above average. The house is vacant and offers scope for modernisation rather than being move-in ready, so budget for refurbishment when considering purchase costs.
Nearby Alness offers good local facilities — shops, sports clubs, schools and a nearby train station — which support day-to-day living and rental demand. The combination of period features, plot, and a discounted auction price creates potential for buyers prepared to act promptly and invest to realise value.
