This two-bedroom terraced house in Smallthorne is offered at auction with a guide price of £80,000 and no upward chain — a clear opportunity for investors or buyers happy to refurbish. The property is freehold, has an average overall size (approximately 815 sq ft) and benefits from off-street parking for two vehicles and a small rear garden. Completion terms include a 10% deposit and a 4%+VAT buyer’s premium (minimum applies). Buyers must review the legal pack and be prepared for the unconditional auction process.
The house is a post‑war, two-storey terrace described as needing renovation: images and notes indicate damp, overgrown garden, external asbestos presence, and general wear indoors. The layout includes a reception room, kitchen/dining room, bathroom, and two double bedrooms — a straightforward floorplan that suits rental conversion or a modest family home after upgrades. Heating is gas central; windows are double glazed.
Location strengths include proximity to several well-rated schools, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, and nearby amenities in Stoke-on-Trent. The area classification suggests hard-pressed rented terraces and higher local crime rates, and the neighbourhood is described as deprived, so buyers should weigh rental demand and yield against potential management and tenancy risks.
This lot suits a hands-on investor comfortable with auction purchase conditions and renovation budgets, or a first-time buyer willing to trade cosmetic and structural works for low entry price and chain-free purchase. Full inspections and the legal pack should be reviewed before bidding; services, fixtures and measurements have not been tested and any special costs will be listed in the legal pack.
