Auction sale; affordable investment with refurbishment upside and rear yard access.
Freehold Victorian end-terrace, pre-1900 construction
A two-bedroom Victorian end-terrace offering straightforward rental or refurbishment potential in central Stoke-on-Trent. The house has two reception rooms, a fitted kitchen, a notably large upstairs bathroom and a rear yard with convenient access — practical features for lettings or a moderate renovation project.
Sold freehold at public auction, this lot suits investors or cash buyers seeking a low-entry price in a city setting. The property is solid-brick (pre-1900) with double glazing and mains gas central heating; however the walls are assumed uninsulated and the interior will benefit from cosmetic modernisation to maximise value and rental income.
Important transactional points: the sale is by public auction, a buyer’s administration fee of £1,800 inc VAT applies, and purchasers should consult the legal pack and their advisers before bidding. The location scores highly for mobile and broadband connectivity but sits in a very deprived area with high local crime statistics — factors that will influence rental demand and management strategy.
For an investor prepared to refurbish and manage risk, this property represents an affordable entry into the local market with potential for uplift after targeted improvements. For owner-occupiers, note the neighbourhood context and likely need for upgrades before moving in.
