Within walking distance of schools and town, ideal for rental or an owner refurbishment.
Chain-free sale for quick completion
Close to Scunthorpe General Hospital and town centre
Off-street parking for multiple vehicles
Decent rear garden with raised patio
Full double glazing; gas combi boiler installed
Requires general refurbishment throughout
Cavity walls likely lack insulation — upgrade recommended
Area records above-average crime; consider security measures
This three-bedroom semi-detached house on Highfield Avenue is a straightforward refurbishment opportunity offered chain-free. Its position on the same road as Scunthorpe General Hospital and within a ten-minute walk of the town centre makes it practical for hospital staff, commuters and buy-to-let investors seeking steady rental demand.
The house retains a conventional mid-20th century layout with dual-aspect bay windows, two double bedrooms, a single third bedroom and a single family bathroom. The kitchen has been partly updated with new wall and base units; other areas require redecoration and modernisation to reach their full potential.
Practical benefits include off-street parking for multiple vehicles, a decent rear garden with a raised patio, full double glazing and a gas combi boiler. Broadband and mobile signals are strong locally, and council tax is very low—factors that support rental appeal or comfortable occupancy after refurbishment.
Notable drawbacks are clear: the property needs renovation throughout, cavity walls appear uninsulated (likely requiring insulation works), and the area records above-average crime—factors buyers must weigh when budgeting and planning. There is only one bathroom and the house dates from the 1950–66 era, so buyers should allow for likely mechanical, electrical and cosmetic upgrades.
