Set on a large plot on a premier Talbot Woods road, this 1930s detached house is a clear project for an experienced buyer or investor. The property offers four bedrooms, two bathrooms, generous internal space (approx. 1,511 sq ft) and substantial rear garden that may allow further development subject to planning. Off-road parking plus double and single garages add practical value for storage or conversion.
The house requires complete renovation throughout: cosmetics, services and likely structural works. Interior notes mention damp and dated mid-century fittings; buyers should expect a full refurbishment and to budget for central heating, electrics, bathrooms and kitchen replacement. The property will be sold at unconditional auction with a buyer’s premium, a 56-day completion requirement and cash-funder preference — read the legal pack carefully before bidding.
This is an opportunity for someone seeking redevelopment upside rather than a move-in-ready home. Potential exists to remodel the internal layout to better use the space, and the rear plot could support additional accommodation subject to planning (STP). Carrying out works could significantly increase value, but purchasers must allow for repair costs, regulatory permissions and elevated local crime statistics when planning future use.
Practical points: the tenure is freehold, council tax band E, no flooding risk, and broadband speeds are fast. Viewings are by appointment only; interested parties should review the legal documents and factor auction conditions and potential special costs into any offer.
