Offered for sale by Modern Method of Auction, this two-bedroom end-of-terrace presents a clear renovation opportunity in NG18. With a gated driveway, side access and a low-maintenance rear garden, the house is compact (approx. 610 sq ft) but practical for first-time buyers or investors seeking value-add scope.
The ground floor includes a welcoming living room, fitted kitchen and a downstairs shower room; upstairs are two double bedrooms. The property has mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, and double glazing installed before 2002. Constructed in the 1930s–1940s, the home retains period proportions but requires updating throughout.
Buyers should note material issues: the property needs renovation, internal decor and services may be dated, and the local area scores high for deprivation and crime. Tenure is unknown and the sale follows auction procedures — completion is required within 56 days and the buyer must purchase and view a Buyer Information Pack (£349 including VAT). Mortgage purchasers should carry out lender checks and a full inspection before bidding.
For an investor this offers rental potential in a market with low council tax and good broadband speeds; for a first-time buyer it’s an affordable route to ownership with scope to build equity through refurbishment. The location benefits from nearby primary and secondary schools, bus links and local green space, but expect renovation work and to factor in local area challenges when deciding to view or bid.
