This top-floor two-bedroom flat occupies part of a Victorian mid-terrace and offers affordable entry into Sunderland’s SR2 postcode. The accommodation comprises two bedrooms, living room, kitchen and bathroom within about 60m² (646 sq ft). The property has double glazing, mains gas central heating and a D EPC rating — practical basics for immediate occupation or letting.
The flat will be sold at auction (11th–12th November 2025). It is leasehold; readers must review the legal pack for lease length, ground rent and service charge details before bidding. There is a buyer’s premium of £1,250 (inc. VAT) payable on exchange and other disbursements may apply.
Strengths include low asking price, a private garden and proximity to transport links and well-regarded local schools. The building retains Victorian character and tall ceilings that suit buyers looking to add value through sympathetic modernisation. Mobile signal and broadband speeds are strong for this location.
Notable drawbacks: the area scores as very deprived with high local crime levels, and the wider neighbourhood is largely constrained renters. There is reported roof work needed and the building’s cavity walls are assumed to lack insulation, so improvement costs are likely. All services and appliances have not been tested and the property is being sold as seen — buy-at-auction risks apply.
