A rare auction lot in Uplands: a 4-bed early 20th-century semi-detached house offered as a full refurbishment project. The property is freehold, has front and side gardens, and a rear garage (access currently overgrown). It will be sold by public auction on 29 October 2025; interested buyers should allow for legal and auction fees and complete on the auction terms.
Structurally the house is dilapidated and requires comprehensive building works and restoration throughout. Period exterior features remain (bay windows, pitched slate roof, chimneys) but the overall condition is poor and the exterior is neglected. Internal layout historically provides multiple reception rooms and four bedrooms; a physical inspection is essential to confirm room sizes, structural condition, services and potential for conversion or subdivision.
Practical positives include double glazing installed since 2002, mains gas with a boiler and radiators, a good-sized garage and generous urban garden space. The location is in a cosmopolitan, student-oriented neighbourhood with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for rental demand but note the area is very deprived with above-average crime statistics which may affect lettability and insurance costs.
This lot suits an investor or developer comfortable with auction purchases and major renovation. Budget for full structural and services works, potential higher council tax on completion, and securing/reinstating access to the rear garage. No flood risk is reported; public notice/repossessed sale conditions apply.
