This three-bedroom end-terraced home offers a clear renovation project in Thornley, presented chain-free and sold by Modern Auction. The layout is traditional: entrance vestibule and hall, lounge with a bay window, separate rear reception room, galley kitchen and three bedrooms upstairs. A rear yard provides hard-standing parking; a small front garden adds kerb appeal.
The property needs modernisation throughout but retains period character and scope for value uplift — ideal for a buyer wanting to add their own stamp or an investor seeking a project. Practical positives include double glazing, mains gas central heating with a combi boiler, fast broadband and a low-crime, well-served village location close to shops, bus services and good local schools.
Important auction details and costs are factual: the sale uses the Modern Method of Auction with an undisclosed reserve price, a reservation agreement and a non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of the purchase price, minimum £6,600). Buyers should allow the 56-day completion timescale, expect buyer administration costs, and complete their own due diligence and surveys before bidding.
Overall this is a compact, freehold Victorian home with clear potential for refurbishment. It suits a first-time buyer comfortable with a renovation programme or an investor prepared to factor in auction fees and repair costs before committing.
