Summary - 29 Sough Road BB3 2BN
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Three-bed Victorian terrace with major renovation potential—auction sale with buyer fees.
Victorian stone mid-terrace with bay window and high ceilings
A substantial Victorian mid-terrace with strong value-add potential, offered as a clear renovation project. The stone bay frontage and high ceilings retain period character, and the house extends to about 1,026 sq ft across two floors with three bedrooms and two reception rooms — a useful canvas for an investor or hands-on purchaser.
Internally the property requires a full overhaul. Photos and description show exposed brickwork, damaged/removed floorboards, evidence of damp/mould in places, outdated sanitaryware and no finished fittings. Essential works will include new floors, kitchen and bathroom fittings, a full rewire, and upgrading heating and plumbing; assume insulation will be required for the solid stone walls.
Sold by the Modern Method of Auction, the sale carries a non-refundable Reservation Fee of 4.5% (minimum £6,600) and a Buyer Information Pack fee of £300 (including VAT). Completion is expected within a 56-day reservation period. These costs and timescales are material to budgeting and financing — obtain lender pre-approval and view the buyer pack before bidding.
Location-wise the property sits in a family-terrace neighbourhood in Darwen (BB3) with good local schools, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The area scores as relatively deprived overall, and the small garden/plot and average crime level reflect a typical inner-town investment profile. This is best for investors or renovators prepared for substantial works and clear, swift decision-making at auction.
