An end-of-terrace Victorian two-bedroom in Ilkeston offered freehold and sold at auction. The house (approx. 837 sq ft) is vacant and needs renovation, presenting a low entry price and clear scope to add value for a cash buyer or investor. It has a lounge, dining room, kitchen, upstairs bathroom, small rear garden and on-street parking.
The property sits in a very deprived, high-crime area of DE7, so buyers should factor in local challenges and possible security or neighbourhood-improvement costs. There is obvious scope for cosmetic upgrading throughout and potential for rear extensions (subject to planning). Ceiling heights and room proportions are typical for a Victorian terrace; many neighbouring properties are well presented.
This will suit a hands-on investor or buyer experienced with refurbishment in tougher markets — someone looking to buy at a low headline price and add value through repairs, redecorating and permitted development. Confirm legal pack details and budget for renovation work and any safety or security upgrades before bidding.
