This three-bedroom, freehold semi-detached house sits on a large plot in an established Leeds suburb close to Temple Newsam Park and Cross Gates rail links. The property is vacant and being sold by order of the executors at public auction, offered with a guide price of £160,000+. It presents clear scope for improvement or redevelopment for a family or investor prepared to refurbish.
Accommodation is arranged over two storeys with two reception rooms, a kitchen, three bedrooms, a bathroom and a separate WC. The exterior includes front and rear gardens, off-street parking and a garage; photos and inspection notes show external wear, peeling paint, overgrown lawns and some roof tile deterioration. The house requires a program of renovation throughout.
Location benefits include multiple ‘Good’ rated primary and secondary schools within reach, low local crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — all attractive for families or rental demand. Note this is a probate sale and will be offered at auction; legal pack and viewing times are provided by the auction particulars.
Buyers should budget for refurbishment costs and factor in auction timelines and probate sale conditions. The property’s size (c. 935 sq ft) and large plot give clear upside for value-add refurbishment, extension (subject to consents) or an investor refurbishment-to-rent scheme.
