A vacant, three-bedroom end-terrace offered for sale by public auction — suited to investors or buyers willing to renovate. The property sits behind a small foregarden and includes a rear garden; accommodation totals around 733 sq ft over two storeys. It has gas central heating and double glazing (installed before 2002) but requires full modernisation throughout; the bathroom is present but not plumbed in.
For a buyer prepared to undertake works there is clear scope to add value: solid-brick construction from the 1930–49 period, a compact layout of five main rooms and room for cosmetic improvement to the facade and gardens. Local amenities include frequent buses and nearby primary and secondary schools (several with Good or Outstanding Ofsted ratings), and the area benefits from excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for rental or resale prospects.
Material negatives are factual and substantial: the property is in a deprived area, shows signs of external neglect (derelict frontage, old windows), has no assumed wall insulation, and needs internal refurbishment and possible electrical/plumbing updating. Energy performance is rated E. Buyers must note the auction conditions: this lot will unconditionally exchange on the fall of the hammer, completion is required within 56 days, and an administration fee is payable on completion. Inspect at your own risk; the property may have limited services during viewings.
This is a clear renovation opportunity or buy-to-let project for a cash buyer or investor comfortable with auction purchase mechanics and refurbishment budgets. If you can manage the works and legal checks, the guide price reflects the level of investment required.
