A substantial four-bedroom, three-storey mid-terrace offering clear refurbishment potential in Hartlepool. Arranged over ground, first and second floors, the property retains Victorian character such as a bay window and high ceilings while requiring wholesale modernisation throughout. The house is freehold with double glazing, mains gas central heating and a small enclosed rear yard.
This is a suited-for-auction buy for investors or builders prepared to refurbish. The property will be sold at livestream auction with a minimum 10% deposit, a buyer’s premium (£1,200 inc VAT) and an administration fee (£1,800 inc VAT) payable on exchange — bidders must study the legal pack for restrictions, planning and building safety details before committing.
Practical positives include low council tax (Band A), EPC rating D, solid brick construction and good mobile/broadband provision. Notable drawbacks are visible damp staining in the kitchen, likely boiler replacement, assumed lack of wall insulation, an overall need for full renovation, and the local area’s very high crime and high deprivation levels. On-street parking only and a small plot limit external scope.
Buyers should complete full due diligence using the legal pack (planning, rights/easements, mining/coalfield info and building safety). For those able to budget for works, this property offers a low entry price and redevelopment upside close to town centre amenities, retail park and the marina.
