Offered for sale at auction on 22 October 2025 with a guide price of £85,000+, this small two-bedroom terraced house (approximately 474 sq ft) is sold with vacant possession and freehold title. The property needs full renovation throughout but benefits from an EPC rating of C, mains gas central heating and double glazing. A small garden and period Victorian exterior add appeal once upgraded.
Positioned in a strong local rental market (LS11), the house is a straightforward acquisition for a landlord building a portfolio. Its compact layout over multiple levels suits buy-to-let conversion or a modest refurbishment to improve rental yield. Council Tax band A keeps ownership costs low.
Buyers should note notable negatives: the property requires comprehensive refurbishment, the area is very deprived and records very high crime levels, and interior damp and general wear are present in the kitchen. These factors will affect renovation costs and rental prospects and should be factored into valuation and finance plans.
