This two-bedroom semi-detached house in Wheatley Hill offers a low-entry investment or renovation opportunity close to local amenities. Offered freehold and with no upper chain, it is being sold at online auction — buyers should budget for auction fees.
The property is a post-war red-brick semi in average overall size (approx. 619 sq ft) and described as a fixer-upper. Interior rooms are medium-sized with good natural light from large windows, but the house shows dated finishes and will require refurbishment to modernise and unlock rental or resale value.
Location strengths include nearby primary and secondary schools rated Good by Ofsted, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, and a private rear garden and driveway. Material considerations are significant: the area is classified as very deprived with high local crime levels, which will affect tenant demand and resale comparisons.
For investors or buyers seeking a project, this property’s low guide price and chain-free sale make it attractive, but factor in renovation costs, potential management needs, and auction-related charges before bidding.
