2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Auction opportunity for buyers ready to renovate and add value quickly.
Freehold mid-terrace Victorian house, vacant and ready for works
A two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace in North End, Portsmouth, offered freehold and vacant. The property requires extensive refurbishment, making it a straightforward project for cash buyers, developers or an investor looking to add value. Sold by online auction with a six-week completion window, it suits those able to move quickly.
The house occupies an average-sized footprint of about 705 sq ft with period features such as a curved bay window and traditional brickwork, but the exterior and interior show visible wear and need modernisation. The property has double glazing installed before 2002, cavity walls likely without added insulation, and a mains-gas boiler with radiator heating—practical basics that will benefit from updating.
Location is a strong practical asset: North End is close to Portsmouth city centre and the port, with good road access (M275) and nearby rail stations (Hilsea, Fratton). Local amenities, parks and leisure centres are within easy reach, and several primary and secondary schools nearby have good to outstanding Ofsted ratings. The area is classified as deprived with constrained local incomes, so consider rental demand and resale timing when planning works.
Overall this is a clearly defined refurbishment opportunity. It will appeal most to investors, renovators or owner-occupiers prepared for significant works and a tight auction timescale. Buyers should budget for structural and cosmetic upgrades, insulation improvements, and modern heating/electrical updates.
