Set on a quiet cul-de-sac in Ellesmere Port, this two-bedroom semi-detached house offers a compact, freehold home with no onward chain. The property has a modern-style kitchen, double glazing and gas central heating, making it ready for immediate occupation or let with minimal delay. At about 571 sq ft the layout is traditional and practical: living room, fitted kitchen, two bedrooms and a family bathroom.
The sale will proceed via Modern Auction, so buyers should budget for a non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of the purchase price, subject to a minimum) plus buyer administration costs. The auction route can suit first-time buyers or investors wanting a quicker purchase, but you must complete due diligence on the Buyer Information Pack and confirm final costs before bidding.
Internally the property shows some everyday wear: surfaces and finishes are presentable but not high-spec, and the plot and rooms are modest in size. The garden is small and low-maintenance with a patio and shed. The wider area is a high-deprivation neighbourhood with above-average crime statistics; that is reflected in local pricing and should be considered by buyers planning resale or rental.
This home is best for a first-time purchaser seeking an affordable starter house or an investor targeting steady rental demand in a priced-for-market area. Early viewing and checking the auction paperwork and local factors are recommended to ensure the purchase meets your plans.
