A compact one-bedroom top-floor flat set within a Victorian terrace on a private road in Upton Park, Slough. The layout is efficient: small open-plan living with direct kitchen access, a single bedroom with a velux-style window, and a shower room. The building’s period character and proximity to the Elizabeth Line station and town centre make this a convenient city-edge home or rental unit.
The property is sold by Modern Auction. Bidders should note an undisclosed reserve price, a non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of the purchase price; minimum £6,600 inc. VAT) and an additional buyer pack fee (up to £349 inc. VAT). Completion is required within 56 days of the auction method and the lease has approximately 93 years remaining — all material costs and timelines must be factored into budgets.
Practical positives include communal rear gardens, off-street gravel parking, double glazing (install date unknown), and easy pedestrian access to the high street and train station. The flat is compact and will suit a single occupant or couple, or an investor seeking a short-term refurbishment let; it is offered with no onward chain.
Important drawbacks: the immediate area has a high crime rating and higher deprivation indicators, and the building is solid-brick Victorian with assumed no wall insulation, so heating and insulation upgrades could be needed. There is mixed information on heating type (electric heating noted, but mains gas boiler and radiators also referenced) — buyers should verify services and running costs. Leasehold status and auction-specific fees create additional purchase risk and costs; complete independent due diligence before bidding.
