Auction fixer-upper near Nottingham city centre, ideal for experienced investors.
Freehold Victorian semi with three bedrooms and small rear garden
This Victorian semi-detached house on Abbey Grove is a low-entry, freehold auction opportunity for investors or experienced renovators. Set over two floors with three bedrooms and a small rear garden, the property requires full modernisation but retains period features such as a bay window and brick exterior that can be restored to add value.
The accommodation currently provides an entrance hall, living room with bay window and fireplace, kitchen, and wet room/WC on the ground floor, with three bedrooms on the first floor (one with en-suite). The house is vacant and sold with a D EPC and Council Tax Band A, making it straightforward for refurbishment and re-letting or resale after improvements.
Buyers should factor in tangible drawbacks: the property needs renovation throughout, walls are solid brick with assumed no insulation, and some internal finishes are dated or worn. The wider area is very deprived with above-average crime and social renting young families, which will affect rental levels and resale timelines.
Practical positives include excellent mobile signal, fast broadband, mains gas central heating, and proximity to Nottingham city centre, train station and local amenities. The lot will be sold at online auction with a six-week completion, so purchasers must be prepared for quick legal and financial readiness.
