A vacant four-bedroom semi-detached house on a large corner plot, offered at public auction — ideal for an investor or hands-on renovator. The property retains period proportions across two storeys, a through reception, separate dining area and a useful driveway and garden. It benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing and an EPC rating of C, providing a solid starting point for improvement.
The house is in need of modernisation throughout: cosmetic and systems upgrades will be required to bring the accommodation to contemporary standards. There is a single wet room/WC on the first floor and a ground-floor WC; buyers should plan for bathroom refurbishment and possible reconfiguration to suit modern family living. Viewings note limited services may be present at times, so treat utilities as requiring inspection.
Sold freehold with vacant possession on completion and subject to auction conditions, this lot suits a buyer able to exchange on the fall of the hammer. The sale carries an administration fee and other costs listed in the legal pack; bidders must consult the legal pack and be prepared to proceed. The location sits in a higher-crime, very deprived ward within a large conurbation, which affects long-term resale and rental values but also creates demand for affordable renovated homes.
For a buyer seeking a project with measurable upside, the property’s corner plot, off-street parking and close proximity to good primary and secondary schools offer clear value drivers after refurbishment. Expect to budget for renovation, verify services on inspection, and allow for auction-related fees and conditional sale terms.
