Requires full modernisation; no heating installed
Freehold; Council Tax band B (low running cost potential)

Sold at auction, this two-bedroom mid-terrace on Princes Street is offered as a full renovation project. The solid brick Victorian shell and modest room sizes suit a hands-on buyer who can manage a complete scheme of works — structural, services and cosmetic upgrades are required. No heating is installed and the property will need a new boiler, internal refit and likely modern electrical work.
At 634 sq ft the layout is traditional: entrance, lounge, kitchen, ground-floor bathroom and two bedrooms. A small enclosed rear yard provides limited outdoor space. The house is freehold with a low Council Tax band B, which helps running costs once work is complete.
Location is convenient for local primary and secondary schools and benefits from excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for letting or resale after refurbishment. Be aware the area records high crime and very high deprivation statistics; factor local market demand and repair costs into any offer.
This property will suit a contractor, experienced buy-to-let investor or an owner-occupier prepared for a full modernisation. The price reflects its condition and auction sale; buyers should allow for comprehensive surveys and a clear budget for heating, wiring, finishes and possible insulation upgrades.
