Period character cottage with garage and clear renovation potential.
No chain — sold freehold, simplifies completion
This two-bedroom semi-detached Victorian cottage in Haslington offers clear investment potential and a flexible renovation project. Set on a small plot with a courtyard garden and double garage, the property is freehold and sold with no onward chain, simplifying purchase logistics. It requires renovation throughout — an opportunity to add modern comforts and increase value in a very affluent, low-crime area with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Accommodation includes a lounge and separate dining room, both with period fireplaces, a kitchen awaiting updating, a downstairs bathroom off the kitchen, and two upstairs bedrooms served by an upstairs toilet only. The solid brick construction (likely uninsulated) and existing mains gas boiler and radiators mean buyers should factor in thermal upgrades and possible rewiring or plumbing work.
The lot will be sold at public auction on 1 December 2025 and carries a buyer administration fee of £1,800 (inc VAT). The sale is subject to the standard auction legal pack and public notice/repossessions; bidders should review legal documents and seek professional advice before bidding. For buyers seeking a characterful home or a renovation investment near good schools and local amenities, this property offers scope to create strong long-term value.
