- Auction guide price £50,000, fees apply
Offered via auction with a low guide price, this Victorian three-storey mid-terrace provides a straightforward refurbishment opportunity. The layout includes an open-plan kitchen/living room on the ground floor, a bathroom and double bedroom on the first floor, and a principal double bedroom plus a separate study on the top floor. A useful cellar adds storage and the rear yard is low-maintenance.
The property is presented in basic condition and requires modernization throughout: dated kitchen fittings, worn floorcoverings, and tired decor. Services include mains gas boiler and radiators; glazing is double but installation date is unknown. There is no onward chain and the freehold tenure simplifies purchase at auction, though fees apply to the sale method.
This suits investors or buyers seeking a low-entry renovation or rental asset in an inner-urban location. Note practical negatives clearly: the area shows high crime and very high deprivation, on-street parking only, small plot and modest room sizes. There is no flooding risk and council tax is very low, which may support running costs during refurbishment and tenancy turnover.
Buyers should budget for refurbishment work (cosmetic and likely mechanical updates) and check the age and performance of heating, glazing and insulation in the stone-built Victorian walls. The property offers value for someone able to manage a short-term project to unlock rental income or modest resale uplift.
