Summary - 5, BANKFIELD GARDENS, HALIFAX HX3 9NT
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached Bungalow
Cul‑de‑sac bungalow with garage and driveway, ideal for seasoned renovators.
No upper chain; sold at auction with strict completion terms
This semi‑detached true bungalow on a cul‑de‑sac in Southowram is a clear project for buyers prepared to refurbish. The single‑storey layout, two bedrooms, conservatory, driveway and detached garage give straightforward scope for value‑adding works and rental or resale potential. A mains gas boiler and double glazing are already in place, reducing some immediate upgrades.
Significant modernisation is required throughout: internal decoration, flooring, kitchen and bathroom updating, garden clearance and likely cosmetic repairs in the lounge (peeling wallpaper, damp patches visible). Cavity walls are original with no added insulation, so buyers should budget for energy‑efficiency improvements. The property carries an Energy Rating of E.
This lot is sold at auction with no upper chain. Buyers must study the legal pack: there is reference to a flying freehold and a requirement to complete quickly (20 working days recommended), making cash buyers or auction‑experienced investors the most suitable purchasers. A bidder security of £13,000, a buyers’ administration fee of £1,500 and a contribution toward vendor legal costs (£1,221.20) are payable on completion.
For an investor or refurbishment buyer, the plot, parking and single‑storey layout offer a practical, low‑complexity renovation. For downsizers or first‑time buyers seeking a move‑in home, the level of work and the auction process present notable barriers unless purchasing with renovation funds and professional advice.
