Affordable Victorian terrace near amenities—ideal buy-to-let or renovation project; selling at auction.
Freehold Victorian mid-terrace with bay window period features
This two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace offers an entry-price opportunity in Gainsborough’s Ashcroft Road. The property includes two reception rooms, a bay-fronted living room, kitchen and bathroom on the ground floor, with two double bedrooms above. It is freehold and will be sold via Modern Method of Auction at a low guide price of £55,000.
The house has period character (bay window, brick façade) and practical uplifts: excellent mobile signal, fast broadband and very low flood risk. Its location is close to local shops, bus routes and schools, making it suitable for rental demand or an owner-occupier seeking affordability. Council tax is very low, which reduces ongoing costs.
Important negatives are factual: the property sits in an area with very high crime rates and very high area deprivation, and the plot and rooms are small. It will suit buyers prepared for a budget refurbishment or a landlord targeting constrained-renter demand rather than those seeking a quiet, upscale neighbourhood. The auction sale means a quicker, cash-ready purchase process and limited time for conditional offers.
For investors this presents straightforward rental potential given location and low entry price; for first-time buyers or cash purchasers it offers a chance to create value but will require practical improvement and an acceptance of the local socio-economic challenges. Viewings are recommended to assess condition and scope for updating.
