Large period terrace needing full modernisation — ideal for investors or renovators.
Three bedrooms and two reception rooms, approx. 1,266 sq ft overall
A substantial three-bedroom mid-terraced period home offered vacant on completion and sold at public auction. The property sits behind a small foregarden and includes rear garden space, generous room sizes (approximately 1,266 sq ft) and original Victorian features such as bay windows and fireplaces. Double glazing was fitted after 2002 and central heating runs from a mains-gas boiler and radiators.
The house requires full modernisation throughout: cosmetic and structural refurbishment, possible repair to water-damaged decoration, and likely upgrades to services and insulation (solid brick walls assumed uninsulated). The Energy Performance Rating is F, and buyers should allow budget for improvement works and any necessary checks revealed in the legal pack.
This lot is suited to investors, developers or experienced DIY buyers who can manage an auction purchase. The property is located in a major conurbation with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, close to several primary and secondary schools (including an outstanding selective girls’ school). The local area is classified as deprived with a multicultural, younger population — factors that will influence rental demand and resale options.
Important auction notes: sale will exchange on the fall of the gavel and an administration fee (circa £2,340 inc VAT) plus any costs listed in the legal pack are payable on completion. Viewings are pre-scheduled; buyers must read the legal pack and budget for immediate works after purchase.
