This split-level two-bedroom flat on Waterside Road is a clear renovation project with strong uplift potential. Arranged over two floors and extending to about 797 sq ft, the layout offers scope to modernise and reconfigure into contemporary living or a rental unit. Its location benefits from proximity to Southall Station (Elizabeth Line), local shops, and several well-rated schools, making it attractive for buy-to-let or a hands-on purchaser.
The property requires complete refurbishment throughout; expect works to wiring, finishes, heating and windows. EPC D and system-built construction with assumed lack of insulation mean energy upgrades will be needed. There is limited access for viewings due to condition, and the area records above-average crime and higher deprivation—factors to budget for in refurbishment and rental marketing.
Leasehold information: 130-year lease from 1 January 1981 (approximately 86 years remaining). The sale is by online auction, so buyers should study the legal pack, allow for a 10% non-refundable deposit on exchange, and confirm mortgage availability—lenders may be restrictive given the construction and condition. Council tax band B and no flood risk are practical positives.
This is a project for experienced investors, developers, or confident first-time buyers who can manage a full refurbishment and navigate an auction purchase. When upgraded, the location and size could deliver strong rental returns or a comfortable family home close to central London links.
