Set on Fox Street, this two-bedroom end-terrace offers clear scope for investors or hands-on buyers prepared to renovate. The property has two double bedrooms, an upstairs bathroom and an enclosed rear garden with gated access — practical features for rental or family use. The long lease (860 years) and chain-free sale at auction simplify legal hurdles and give immediate possession potential.
Important concerns are upfront: the vendor reports possible structural movement requiring investigation, and the area shows high crime and very high deprivation which can affect resale and lettability. The house is a period solid-brick build with no wall insulation assumed and double glazing installed before 2002; it will benefit from modernisation and energy improvements. Limited lending may apply, so buyers relying on standard mortgage finance should check eligibility before bidding.
Practical positives include mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, generous proximity to Warrington town centre, hospital and train stations, and several highly rated local schools nearby. The compact footprint (circa 629 sq ft) and straightforward mid‑terrace layout make this an economical refurbishment or buy-to-let opportunity for experienced investors or renovators.
This lot is sold via secure online bidding with auction terms and public notice of repossession. Buyers should budget for remedial works and obtain structural and legal advice before purchase. For those seeking a value-led project in a well-connected location, this property presents clear upside once renovated.
