A vacant freehold Victorian end-terrace offered at auction — attractive to buyers targeting uplift through refurbishment. The property includes two bedrooms, two reception rooms and gardens, with gas central heating and double glazing already in place. At 909 sq ft it is a larger-than-average two-bed layout for the area and sits behind a foregarden with potential for a rear garage or storage subject to consents.
This lot is sold at public auction with a guide price of £95,000; legal pack review and budgeted auction costs are essential before bidding. The building is solid-brick (pre-1900) and likely lacks wall insulation; there is reported possible damp and cosmetic wear throughout, so expect refurbishment works to modernise the interior and improve energy performance (current EPC D).
Location drivers include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and proximity to local amenities and several schools. Material considerations: the neighbourhood is classified as deprived with higher local crime levels, and surrounding schools show mixed Ofsted ratings. The buyer should factor these social and market factors into rental prospects or resale timing.
This property suits investors or builders seeking a project to add value, or cash-ready buyers comfortable purchasing at auction. The sale is unconditional on the fall of the hammer and includes an administration fee and other costs set out in the legal pack; pre-auction offers may be considered above guide price.
