A vacant three-bedroom mid-terrace offered for sale at auction, presenting clear refurbishment and rental potential in WS2. The property retains UPVC double glazing and a traditional mid‑20th century layout: two reception rooms, dining kitchen, pantry, three bedrooms, bathroom and WC. At 883 sq ft with a small garden, it could suit a hands-on investor or someone seeking a low-entry refurbishment project.
The house requires renovation throughout: main heating currently room heaters using smokeless fuel, and the EPC sits at E. Services and internal finishes will need updating; bring a torch for viewings as electricity may be off. The location sits within a very deprived area with high local crime, which will affect tenant demand and rents and should be factored into yield and refurbishment budgets.
Sold freehold with vacant possession, the sale is by public auction (23 October 2025). Completion is 42 days and an administration fee applies on exchange; buyers must review the legal pack and allow for additional costs listed there. This lot is priced to reflect its condition and sale method — suitable for experienced investors or renovators able to proceed quickly and manage local market risks.
