Set in a quiet rural hamlet, 4 Wimbourne Cottages is a three-bedroom, two-storey semi-detached house offered freehold and sold at public auction. The property sits on a generous, mature garden with off-street parking and a single garage, and provides a solid layout: two good reception rooms, a compact kitchen and a substantial entrance hall. At just over 1,000 sq ft the cottage offers clear scope to reconfigure and modernise to current standards.
This house is a renovation project: it requires modernisation throughout and will benefit from a full programme of updating. The EPC is 11 (Band G), indicating significant energy and insulation improvements are needed. Broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal is average — factors to consider if working from home or needing high connectivity.
The sale will take place at public auction on 25th September 2025, 2.00pm at Lion Quays Resort; the property is being sold with public notice/repossession flagged. Its location in a peaceful rural community, very low local crime rate and nearby good primary and secondary schools make it suitable for an investor, builder or buyer seeking a countryside renovation with long-term value uplift potential.
Buyers should plan for renovation costs and potential structural or systems upgrades. No flood risk is recorded and council tax Band B keeps holding costs modest while works are completed. Viewings should be approached with a contractor or surveyor in mind to assess full remedial scope prior to bidding.
