A vacant, three-bedroom semi-detached home on Rokeby Avenue offered for sale by auction. The house is freehold, has gardens to three sides and off-street parking, and sits on a decent plot in a well-connected area with good public transport and several local schools. Accommodation includes an open-plan lounge/dining room, single kitchen, three bedrooms and a bathroom with separate W.C. The property is sold with vacant possession and will be offered at auction on 28th August 2025.
This is a clear renovation project: the property requires updating and general upkeep (overgrown gardens, interiors need attention). Services are mains gas, water, electricity and fibre broadband; heating is via boiler and radiators. Buyers should note the region’s mining history—carry out a mining search and ask your conveyancer for advice.
Practical matters for bidders: sale is by live online auction; guide price is shown and a seller reserve may apply. Successful buyers pay an auction administration fee of £2,000 + VAT (total £2,400). Tenure is stated as freehold but should be verified by your legal adviser.
There are a few inconsistencies in the paperwork: EPC and council tax band are both recorded differently in separate sections (EPC shown as A in one place and D in another; council tax listed as B and also A elsewhere). Prospective purchasers should verify the correct EPC rating and council tax band before bidding.
