Summary - 17 STEPHEN STREET HARTLEPOOL TS26 8QA
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Low-cost auction opportunity with courtyard and ready-to-improve layout for landlords.
Freehold two-bedroom mid-terrace, approx. 636 sq ft
A compact two-bedroom mid-terrace offered freehold and being sold via online auction — a low-entry buy for cash investors or hands-on renovators. The property provides an open-plan living/kitchen on the ground floor and two bedrooms above, with a small enclosed rear courtyard and on-street parking to the front.
The house is of solid brick construction from the 1930s–1940s with basic room heaters and mains gas; glazing type is not defined. Interior photos and descriptions indicate an updated open-plan kitchen/dining area with laminate flooring, but the wider area is classified as very deprived with high local crime and terraces of modest condition. Council Tax Band A and very cheap local taxes help running costs.
This lot suits an investor seeking a low-price auction purchase for refurbishment, rental or resale. Allow for basic works and improved security measures given the local context; walls are likely uninsulated (solid brick as-built) and heating is a mix of room heaters and gas, so energy upgrades would increase appeal and rental value. Buyers should budget for auction fees and any immediate remedial works.
There is local access to several primary and secondary schools (including a locally rated Outstanding secondary) and basic amenities nearby. No flood risk is indicated, but the plot is very small and parking is on-street only. Full internal inspection recommended prior to bidding.
