An auction lot offering a three-bedroom semi-detached house on Heanor Road with vacant possession and clear scope for value uplift. The property is arranged over three floors (ground, first and second) and includes a driveway, small rear garden and gas central heating. Broadband and mobile coverage are strong in the area.
The house is a renovation project: the kitchen is dated and shows signs of damp/mould, and the property generally requires a full scheme of works. That condition creates potential for an investor or keen DIY buyer to modernise and reconfigure the layout to increase value — guide price £180,000–£200,000.
Practical points for buyers: the sale will be by auction on 14 October 2025, with purchaser documentation charges and registration requirements. Local amenities, primary and secondary schools, public transport and Shipley Country Park are all close by, but the neighbourhood records above-average crime and is in a deprived area, which should be factored into rental or resale assumptions.
This will suit a cash-ready investor or an experienced refurbisher who can budget for remediation, modernization and potential redecoration. The property’s size, three-bedroom layout and roadside parking provide a clear platform for a return once works are completed.
