Low-cost auction project with updated kitchen and garden potential.
Brand-new kitchen and modern bathroom installed
Requires finishing touches and general renovation to complete
Generous front garden — rare at this price point
Gas central heating, double glazing, boiler and radiators
Sold at auction; buyer pays £2,400 administration fee
Area: very deprived with high local crime — affects lettings/resale
Small plot size; garden currently overgrown and needs maintenance
EPC Grade E; property offered as seen, services not tested
This mid-terrace two-bedroom property is offered at auction as a clear project for investors or experienced buy-to-let landlords. Recent updates include a brand-new kitchen and modern bathroom, so the heavy structural work may not be required; however the property still needs finishing touches and general renovation to be fully habitable or lettable.
Practical positives include gas central heating, double glazing, mains boiler and radiators, and a generous front garden — an uncommon feature at this price point. The 668 sq ft layout is a straightforward three-room plan that suits a small family or two-bedroom rental unit. Broadband and mobile signals are excellent, supporting modern tenancy expectations.
Buyers should note material drawbacks openly: the house is sold at auction, will be sold as seen, and has not been independently inspected; utilities and services have not been tested. The area is classified as very deprived with high local crime rates, which will affect lettings and resale values. There is a small plot size and some garden maintenance required. Auction fees and possible reserve prices apply — budget for the £2,400 buyer administration fee and legal searches.
For an investor prepared to complete the finishing works and manage lettings carefully, this property offers strong entry-level pricing and local demand from social renters. Proximity to the Northumberland coast and nearby primary schools are positives for future tenants; careful due diligence and a clear refurbishment budget are advised before bidding.
