This freehold, two-bedroom Victorian end-terrace sits opposite Christchurch Park and is offered via Modern Auction, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking a period home with scope to add value. The house features an open-plan lounge/diner, a notable 13ft first-floor bathroom and a West-facing, walled rear garden that catches the evening sun. There is a basement providing extra space, though head height is limited.
The property is sold subject to auction terms: an undisclosed reserve price, a non-refundable reservation fee and buyer’s fees apply. Completion is expected within 56 days and bidders should review the Buyer Information Pack and carry out their own due diligence before offering. There is no onward chain, which can simplify transfer once the auction process completes.
Internally the layout is practical but requires updating in places. Heating is gas-fired with radiators and the windows are double glazed (install date unknown). The solid brick construction offers character but likely limited wall insulation. Outside, the West-facing garden and the reported gated side access/courtyard provide useful private outdoor space rare for terraces in the area.
This home suits a buyer ready to modernise for immediate occupation or rental. It offers good potential to improve energy performance and layout, but factor in renovation costs and the auction-related purchase fees when assessing affordability. The location benefits from nearby schools, good broadband and low local crime, though the wider area registers as very deprived.
