An end-of-terrace Victorian property offered for auction with clear investment upside after refurbishment. The house is spacious inside (approx. 1,042 sq ft) with a large kitchen-diner, lounge, basement room and two good-sized bedrooms — ideal for a rental conversion or resale once modernised. Current rental estimate is £9,000 per year in this high-demand area.
The property requires a full refurbishment: the mid-20th-century kitchen shows damp and mould and the home is described as needing modernisation throughout. Services include modern double glazing and a gas combination boiler, but the EPC is pending and the tenure must be checked in the legal pack. An administration fee of £2,400 (inc. VAT) is payable on exchange, and purchasers should review disbursements in the legal pack.
Location offers practical advantages: short walk to Wombwell High Street, train station and buses, good road links, convenient local shops and several well-rated primary and secondary schools nearby. The rear enclosed yard and off-street vehicle access are useful extras for this neighbourhood.
This sale is via auction (commencing 29th Sept). Suiting investors or hands-on buyers comfortable with renovation in a deprived, high-crime area, the property offers clear upside but requires budgeted works and careful due diligence before bidding.
