This two-bedroom semi-detached house on City Road, Kitt Green, is offered as an auction project for buyers willing to renovate. The traditional layout and two decent bedrooms give straightforward scope to create a comfortable family home or a rental unit. The property includes front and rear gardens and measures about 639 sq ft.
The house requires renovation and cosmetic updating throughout: the kitchen and bathroom will need modernising, and general refurbishment is expected. Heating runs from a mains-gas boiler and radiators; glazing is double glazed (install date unknown). Tenure is not stated and should be checked in the legal pack.
Sold at auction with a starting bid of £85,000, purchasers should be aware of standard auction conditions: a non-refundable deposit and reservation fee apply, plus buyer verification processes. The immediate area is economically deprived, so buyer suitability should reflect local market conditions and rental demand.
Despite wider area challenges, the location benefits from good transport links, fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and nearby primary schools with strong Ofsted ratings. For an investor or hands-on buyer, this lot offers clear potential to add value through targeted refurbishment.
