Auction opportunity with renovation potential near local shops and transport.
Chain-free, freehold two-bedroom first-floor apartment
A chain-free, freehold two-bedroom first-floor apartment offered for sale by Modern Method of Auction. At about 839 sq ft this property provides a bright lounge, separate reception room, rear kitchen and a modern bathroom — a straightforward layout that suits rental or refurbishment.
Buyers should note the sale route: completion is required within 56 days, a non-refundable Reservation Fee of 4.5% (minimum £6,600) applies, and the Buyer Information Pack costs £349. Auction terms and extra optional service fees (up to £450) are payable in addition to the purchase price and should be factored into any offer.
The flat is located within walking distance of local shops, bus routes and convenience amenities, with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — positives for tenants or commuters. Nearby schools include several rated Good and one Outstanding secondary, which may support family rental demand.
Material negatives are clear: the property sits in an area with high crime levels and very high deprivation, and some parts of the building show dated features (narrow staircase, low ceilings and older exterior elements) that likely need updating. This makes the apartment better suited to buyers comfortable with refurbishment and managing risk, or investors targeting value-add opportunities rather than a ready-made family home.
