Offered for sale at online auction, this two-bedroom mid-terrace on Byron Street is a straightforward investment or renovation project. The property is freehold, chain-free and benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and a compact rear yard. Accommodation includes a ground-floor lounge, kitchen and bathroom, with two bedrooms upstairs and an EPC rating of D.
The house requires renovation and redecorating throughout: expect cosmetic and modernization works to bring the Victorian features back to life. The footprint is small (approximately 549 sq ft) so scope is limited to internal reconfiguration rather than extension; the property is best suited to buy-to-let or a hands-on investor seeking a lower-entry purchase price.
Location-wise the house is close to local amenities, transport links and the Stadium of Light. Broadband and mobile coverage are good, and Council Tax is Band A. Buyers should note the area is classified as very deprived with above-average crime levels, which will affect rental yields and resale prospects.
Sale is via auction with a buyer administration fee of £2,400 (including VAT). Prospective purchasers must factor auction processes, possible reserve, and the need to verify all title, statutory consents and appliance/service conditions prior to bidding.
