This two-bedroom bungalow with an additional converted loft room offers clear refurbishment potential in Blackhall Colliery. The property is freehold, gas‑heated with UPVC double glazing, and sits close to local amenities and schools, making it suitable for rental or resale after modernisation. The small, low‑maintenance rear garden and front garden are practical for tenants or an owner who prefers minimal upkeep.
Sold at auction with a new guide price of £48,000, the sale requires a 10% deposit on exchange and 28‑day completion. An administration charge of £1,800 (inc. VAT) and a buyer’s premium of 1.8% (min £1,200 inc. VAT) are payable on exchange — factor these costs and the need for renovation into your budget. The legal pack should be reviewed carefully for building safety, rights, easements, and coalfield/mining notes.
The bungalow dates from the 1930s–1940s, with solid brick construction and filled cavity walls. It requires a scheme of modernising: cosmetic updates are needed throughout, and buyers should allow for potential mechanical or electrical works. Broadband speed is limited (approx. 4 Mbps reported), while mobile coverage is good; parking is on‑street.
This is a practical project property for experienced investors or cash buyers comfortable with auction conditions and refurbishment. For buyers seeking a move‑in‑ready home or a property in a less deprived area, the location and condition may not suit without significant improvement works.
