Summary - 110, BLAKELAND ROAD B44 8AS
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Low guide-price fixer with garden — cash buyers or investors only due to short lease.
Three-bedroom 1930s semi-detached house, approx. 1,005 sq ft
A three-bedroom 1930s semi-detached house sold at auction with immediate renovation potential. The property offers a traditional layout: porch, two reception rooms, kitchen, three bedrooms and a shower room. It has gas central heating and double glazing, a front and rear garden, and measures approximately 1,005 sq ft. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent.
This lot is sold leasehold with only around seven years remaining on the 99-year lease (99 years from June 1933). The short lease is a material issue: many mortgage lenders will refuse to lend, so purchasers should plan for cash purchase, bridging finance, or factor in the cost and feasibility of lease extension. The property will be sold at public auction and is sold vacant on completion; purchasers must exchange unconditionally on the fall of the gavel and pay the stated admin/auction fees in addition to the purchase price.
The house needs full modernisation throughout — internal photos show damaged flooring, dated finishes and areas requiring repair. Walls are solid brick with assumed no insulation, so energy upgrades may be needed. Buyers should inspect the legal pack for any additional costs and check the viewing schedule. This opportunity suits experienced renovators or investors seeking a low guide-price entry into a deprived area with nearby good schools and standard local amenities.
Buyers are advised to undertake their own surveys and legal checks before bidding. The short lease, renovation requirement and auction purchasing terms are the principal negatives; offsetting strengths are garden space, period character, three bedrooms and straightforward heating/double glazing already in place.
