A compact two-bedroom character cottage offered for sale by online auction with a starting bid of £65,000. The house sits on a small plot and includes an entrance hall, lounge with a feature fire surround, kitchen, cellar, two bedrooms and a bathroom. A recently installed boiler is in place and the property has double glazing (install date unknown); the current EPC rating is D.
The cottage retains period character in its stone-built form, exposed brick and ceiling beams and benefits from a good-sized enclosed front garden — a rare outdoor space for a property of this size. At about 572 sq ft, the layout is best suited to first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-entry purchase with straightforward improvement potential.
Buyers should note material considerations: the property is in a very deprived area with above-average local crime, and the stone walls are assumed to lack insulation — further thermal upgrades may be needed to improve comfort and running costs. The sale will be via secure online bidding (terms and conditions apply) and viewings are by appointment only.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, excellent mobile signal, fast broadband and proximity to several well-rated schools including an outstanding secondary and a top-performing grammar school. The combination of low starting price and recent boiler makes this a realistic project for someone prepared to carry out modest renovation and insulation improvements.
