Medium flood risk and high local crime rate — affects insurance and safety

Council Tax Band A — very low running costs
This two-bedroom mid-terrace offers an affordable entry into Leicester close to the city centre. The property is freehold and double-glazed, with two reception rooms, mains gas heating and fast broadband — practical basics for everyday living. Council Tax is very low, helping running costs for a new owner.
The house needs full modernisation: cosmetic and likely deeper works are required (solid brick walls assumed without insulation). It will be sold at auction via Secure Sale online bidding, so buyers should allow time to review terms and factor renovation costs and auction timescales into their plans. There is a medium flood risk and the local area records high crime levels, both important considerations for budgeting and insurance.
Location is a genuine strength: a short walk to the city centre, close to convenience stores and leisure facilities, and near several primary and secondary schools (including outstanding-rated secondaries). The small plot and mid-terrace form suit buyers wanting low-exterior maintenance and those planning internal refurbishment or rental occupation.
For first-time buyers or investors prepared to renovate, this property is a blank canvas with clear potential to add value. Be realistic about upgrade needs — insulation, cosmetic overhaul, and possible structural or services checks — and obtain survey and auction advice before bidding.
