Compact renovated one-bedroom with low running costs and vacant possession.
Ground-floor 1 bed flat with private rear garden and separate entrance
This ground-floor garden flat offers a compact, newly renovated one-bedroom home with private rear garden and separate entrance — a practical pick for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. Recent works include loft insulation, external wall insulation and new windows/doors; the flat is offered vacant so it’s ready for immediate occupation or letting. The layout is traditional and efficient across 426 sq ft, with a separate kitchen, reception room, bedroom and bathroom.
The property will be sold at live online auction with an extended eight-week completion. Note the sale carries a mandatory buyer’s premium (£1,800 inc VAT) and a modest annual management/service charge of £440. The legal pack includes retrofit, asbestos and technical surveys plus a full schedule of recent communal works — bidders should review these documents carefully before offering.
Practical considerations: heating is by electric storage heaters and mains electricity is the principal fuel. The listing data shows differing lease notes (references to 90, 115 and 125 years in various documents); prospective buyers must confirm the exact remaining term and any lease extension costs via the legal pack. The surrounding area is described as having higher deprivation metrics, average crime levels and good local amenities and schools, with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
This is a reduced-price auction opportunity (previously marketed at £150,000) that suits purchasers wanting a ready-to-move-in flat or a straightforward rental let. Review the legal pack for the full schedule of works and the independent rental appraisal before bidding.
