A compact three-bedroom mid-terrace on Crown Bays Road offered at auction, presented as a practical family home with scope to add value. The property has a through kitchen/dining room, a reception room with a feature fireplace, and a private rear garden with a pond—useful for families who want outdoor space and storage. Off-street parking on the front driveway is a useful convenience in this built-up area.
Buyers should note this is sold through a modern auction: an undisclosed reserve price applies, a non-refundable reservation fee of 4.5% (minimum £6,600) plus a pack preparation fee (up to £349) are payable. Completion is expected within 56 days and the buyer must supply ID and funding proof; full Buyer Information Pack is provided but independent checks are recommended.
The house is freehold, gas‑fired central heating with boiler and radiators, and double glazing installed post‑2002. Constructed in the late 1960s–1970s with cavity walls (assumed uninsulated), the property is compact at about 620 sq ft and sits on a small plot — good for a growing family or an investor seeking an affordable terraced home with modest renovation potential.
Material negatives: one bathroom only, small overall size and plot, area classified as deprived with above-average crime, and walls assumed to lack cavity insulation. Prospective buyers should arrange surveys and factor refurbishment, insulation or electrical checks into costs. The auction process and associated fees can materially affect affordability — read the reservation agreement and Buyer Information Pack carefully.
