Summary - 2 SEARBY ROAD SCUNTHORPE DN17 2JT
3 bed 1 bath End of Terrace
Auction opportunity for an investor to refurbish and add rental value.
No upward chain; sold by modern auction (reserve and buyer fees apply) | Needs full modernisation throughout | Off-street parking with deeded space included | Front and rear gardens; scope for landscaping or extension | Mains gas boiler and radiators present; double glazing fitted (age unknown) | Situated near several Good-rated schools and local amenities | High local crime and very deprived area — let/resale risk to consider | Council tax very low, modest running costs potential
Offered at auction with no upward chain, this three-bedroom end-of-terrace presents clear investor appeal. The property requires a comprehensive program of modernisation but has straightforward layout and reliable mains-gas heating, making it suitable for letting or resale after improvements.
The house includes an off-street parking space and front and rear gardens, both offering scope for landscaping or rental-enhancing features. Located close to several well-rated primary and secondary schools and local amenities, it should attract family tenants and owner-occupiers once renovated.
Important negatives are stated plainly: the home needs renovation throughout, the area records high crime levels and very high deprivation, and the sale proceeds via a modern auction (subject to reserve and buyers’ fees). Buyers should factor repair, refurbishment and compliance costs into their budgets.
For investors and experienced renovators this property offers a modest-footprint, low-entry purchase with potential for uplift through updating, improved thermal performance and cosmetic refurbishment.
