A two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace with garden and off-street parking, offered for sale by auction and priced to reflect its renovation needs. The house sits close to St. Helens town centre, train and bus links, and a range of primary and secondary schools, some rated Outstanding. The property has original solid-brick construction and double glazing (unknown install date) but requires full modernisation throughout.
This leasehold home is suited to a cash buyer, investor or hands-on first-time purchaser looking for a project with clear uplift potential. Heating is by room heaters on mains gas; walls are assumed uninsulated. Interior photos show dated finishes, ceiling tiles and a gas fireplace — practical layout but immediate cosmetic and systems work likely required.
Important sale terms: the property is sold by Modern Method of Auction with a 56-day reservation period, a buyer information pack fee (£349 inc VAT) and a non-refundable reservation fee of 4.5% of the purchase price (minimum £6,600 inc VAT). Prospective buyers should check mortgage acceptability before bidding and factor these transaction costs into their budget.
Location strengths include excellent mobile signal, fast broadband, nearby transport and leisure amenities. Material negatives: the area is very deprived with above-average crime; the property needs renovation, may require insulation and heating upgrades, and is leasehold — all factors that affect mortgageability and insurance costs.
