Summary - LYNDHURST NEW ROAD NEWTOWN SY16 1AS
4 bed 1 bath Terraced
Large four-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace with period features
A substantial four-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace with strong development and rental potential, offered freehold and sold at online auction on 29 October 2025. Period features include bay windows, high ceilings, sash windows, exposed brickwork and original fireplaces; the property also benefits from a cellar, garage and a garden with landscaping potential. With an overall footprint reported as very large (total square footage listed as 9,100), the house could suit conversion, refurbishment for buy-to-let, or a sympathetic multi-room HMO (subject to consents).
The house is a clear renovation project: the kitchen is dated and damaged, the property requires general refurbishment throughout and the sale is unconditional on exchange at auction. Practical considerations include a single bathroom, small plot size, and a legal pack that should be reviewed carefully for any additional costs or special conditions. Flood risk is listed as none, but the area has very high crime levels and is described as very deprived, factors that will affect lettability, resale values and insurance costs.
Auction-specific terms materially affect purchasers: a 5% deposit on fall of the hammer, plus a buyer’s premium of 5% + VAT (minimum charge applies), and completion usually required within 28 days. Pre-auction offers are considered but remain subject to the same auction conditions. Buyers should check the legal pack, arrange funding in advance, and factor refurbishment costs, potential licensing/consent needs, and local market conditions into any offer.
For an investor or developer prepared to carry out works, this property provides roomy accommodation, period character and add-value scope in Newtown’s central New Road location. For owner-occupiers, the house offers character and space but will need significant time and budget to make it ready to live in.
