This two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace is a large freehold fixer in Manselton, offered for sale by online auction. At 1,134 sq ft across two reception rooms, kitchen and first-floor bathroom, the layout suits a rental conversion or resale after renovation. The property has period features and a bay window to the front but is in clear need of full refurbishment.
Significant works are required: single glazing, damp and mould reported in the hallway/staircase, exposed brick and unfinished plasterboard, plus general disrepair throughout. The rear garden is enclosed but overgrown. Buyers should budget for a full internal upgrade including systems, windows and decoration.
For investors, the area offers fast broadband, no flood risk and a low council-tax band, improving lettability. Note the wider area has high deprivation and average crime levels; factor location into rental assumptions and refurbishment spend.
Sale is by online auction with registration and a holding fee to bid. Successful bidders pay a 10% deposit on exchange; a buyer's premium applies if sold pre-auction. Legal pack and searches should be reviewed before bidding — completion is typically 28 days after exchange.
