Three-bedroom Victorian end-of-terrace in Burnley offered for sale via national online auction — a low-entry, buy-to-let or refurbishment project for a hands-on investor. The property comprises a lounge, kitchen, three bedrooms, bathroom and a small rear yard. It is sold with a tenant in place, providing immediate rental income but limiting vacant-possession options.
The house has period stone elevations and pre-2002 double glazing; EPC rating D. Construction dates to c.1900–1929 with assumed uninsulated stone walls and a gas boiler with radiators. The plot is very small and room sizes are modest, so scope is mainly internal modernisation rather than extension.
Important negatives are clear: the area is very deprived with very high recorded crime, and significant refurbishment may be needed to meet rental standards or to improve capital value. An administration fee of £3,600 (inc. VAT) is payable on exchange, plus any disbursements listed in the legal pack — buyers must review the legal documents before bidding.
Auction bidding opens Monday 29th September at 1pm and closes Tuesday 30th September from 1pm. Price reflects a low-entry point, but factor in refurbishment costs, tenant status, and area risk when valuing future income or resale potential.
