Summary - John McGuire Crescent, Binley, Coventry, West Midlands, CV3 CV3 2QG
3 bed 1 bath End of Terrace
Solid layout with garden and refurbishment potential close to schools and transport.
Chain-free three-bedroom end terrace with garage and driveway
This three-bedroom end-of-terrace on John McGuire Crescent offers a straightforward, chain-free purchase opportunity with a garage, driveway and secure rear garden. At around 1,037 sq ft on a decent plot, the layout is traditional and practical: lounge, kitchen, three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The property dates from the late 1970s–early 1980s and provides solid bones for a first-time buyer or investor.
The house needs modernization — internal decor is dated and the living room suffers from poor natural light — so expect renovation costs to update finishes, kitchen and bathroom. Double glazing is present but install date is unknown. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators; cavity walls are filled. These features reduce immediate major works but factor in potential replacement/upgrade costs over time.
Location strengths include good local amenities, multiple nearby schools (two rated Good by Ofsted), fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, plus convenient motorway links for commuters. The wider area is a mixed, multi-ethnic suburb classified as hampered neighbourhoods and has higher deprivation indicators; crime levels are average. These local factors affect longer-term resale values and should be weighed alongside the purchase price.
Important auction terms: sale by Modern Method of Auction is chain-free but requires signing a reservation agreement, payment of a non-refundable Reservation Fee (4.5% of price, minimum £6,600 inc VAT) and completion within 56 days of draft contract. Buyers should budget for that fee, provide ID and proof of funds, and confirm mortgage suitability. This property suits a hands-on buyer looking to add value through refurbishment, a first-time owner seeking a practical home, or a buy-to-let investor comfortable with auction procedures.
