A two-bedroom mid-terrace in central Middlesbrough offered for sale by livestream auction. The property occupies a compact 667 sq ft layout across two storeys with a through living/dining room, kitchen, ground-floor bathroom and small rear yard. Gas central heating via a combi boiler and double glazing are fitted; the building dates from the early 20th century and retains traditional solid brick walls.
This lot is aimed at investors or a buyer seeking a refurbishment project. The area is very deprived with very high local crime rates, and the property falls within a selective licensing zone (see legal pack). The house will need modernisation to maximise rental or resale value: rooms are relatively small, the EPC is E, glazing predates 2002 and wall insulation is assumed absent. Buyers should allow for improvement costs and possible planning or compliance work shown in the legal pack.
Practical considerations for auction buyers: sale is freehold with a guide price of £45,000, a 10% deposit is required on exchange and an administration fee plus buyer’s premium apply. Broadband is recorded in the legal pack as standard (around 8 Mbps). Parking is off-street; mobile signal is good. Full due diligence on the legal pack, building safety and any restrictive covenants is essential prior to bidding.
For an investor prepared to refresh the accommodation, the property’s town-centre location, nearby schools and local amenities support rental demand. The compact footprint and straightforward construction make this a project with clear scope for value-add through refurbishment, energy upgrades and reconfiguration where permitted.
