Spacious Victorian semi-detached house offering four bedrooms, three reception rooms and a basement across 1,127 sq ft. The property retains period features — high ceilings, fireplaces, bay window and decorative panelling — and sits on a large plot with off-road parking and a tandem garage. It’s a rare opportunity for buyers wanting a character home to restore and adapt.
The house is sold via a Modern Method of Auction: there is an undisclosed reserve price, non-refundable buyer fees (including a reservation fee from 4.5% subject to minimum), and a requirement to complete within 56 days. Buyers must review the Buyer Information Pack and carry out their own due diligence before bidding.
Condition is a key consideration. The property needs renovation throughout and, as-built solid brick walls likely lack cavity insulation. Expect updating of finishes, mechanical systems and possible structural or damp investigations in the cellar. Council tax is moderate and the tenure is freehold.
For families and buyers seeking a renovation project, the location suits commuters with young families — good mobile signal, fast broadband and several well-rated nearby schools. The large plot, outbuildings and garage provide scope for extension or reconfiguration (subject to planning). Be mindful the local area records higher crime and elevated deprivation indices, which may affect resale or rental prospects.
