Set on a generous plot at the top of a quiet cul-de-sac in Woodthorpe, this three-bedroom detached home offers clear scope for renovation and uplift. The property is vacant freehold and will be sold at auction with an 8-week exchange, making it suitable for experienced renovators or investors who can move quickly.
Constructed in the mid-20th century and retaining period character, the house benefits from double glazing (fitted post-2002), mains gas central heating and a garage plus driveway parking. The existing layout provides a bay-fronted reception, a ground-floor WC, utility room and a single family bathroom upstairs — a straightforward canvas for a reconfiguration or extension (subject to planning permission).
Key positives include a decent plot with a mature rear garden, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, very low local crime and no flood risk. Material considerations: the house requires renovation throughout, the walls are solid brick with no assumed cavity insulation, and there is only one bathroom. Sold at auction and vacant, purchasers should allow for refurbishment costs and the tighter 8-week completion timetable.
