A three-bedroom 1930s semi-detached house offered vacant with auction completion—suitable for a cash buyer or experienced investor. The property sits back from the road with a foregarden, rear garden and detached garage, and retains period bay windows. It has double glazing and gas central heating but requires full modernisation throughout.
Important legal and finance points significantly affect value and buyer suitability. The property is leasehold with approximately 12 years remaining on a 99-year term; many mortgage lenders will refuse to lend. The lot will be sold at public auction where contracts exchange on the fall of the gavel, so purchasers must review the legal pack and allow for the administration fee and any other costs set out in the special conditions.
This is a clear renovation opportunity for a cash purchaser or a specialist investor able to manage lease extension or redevelopment. Local amenities include several outstanding primary schools and reasonable transport links. The property is offered vacant, making access and works straightforward, but buyers should plan for refurbishment costs and confirm energy performance in the legal pack.
