This substantial four-bedroom Victorian semi on Corkland Road offers generous living space across multiple floors, high ceilings, and period character. The ground floor includes a bay-front reception room, a large open-plan kitchen/living/dining area and useful cellar space; the rear garden and off-street driveway add practical outdoor and parking space for a family home.
Important structural defects mean the property is only suitable for cash buyers or investors prepared to manage significant works. Known issues include incomplete underpinning with acroprops in place, bay windows needing major repair or rebuilding, roof and window repairs, damp and replastering, and various external woodwork and guttering repairs. A full structural survey is strongly recommended before bidding.
The house is being sold by auction under the Modern Method of Auction. Sale is subject to a reserve price and buyers must pay a non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of the purchase price, minimum £6,600 inc. VAT) plus any Buyer Information Pack fee. These costs are additional to the purchase price and should be factored into budgets. If you need a mortgage, confirm affordability with your lender before bidding — this property is described as unsuitable for mortgage finance due to structural issues.
For the right purchaser this is a high-potential project in a sought-after Chorlton location, close to local shops, cafes and well-regarded schools. The combination of size, period detail and plot offers clear scope to create a bespoke family home or a value-add investment, subject to completing the necessary structural and cosmetic works.
