Summary - 52 DALE ROAD SHILDON DL4 2LA
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Chain-free two-bed with yard — auction start £60,000, ideal for refurb or rental.
Two reception rooms plus separate kitchen and rear lobby
This two-bedroom mid-terrace on Dale Road is a straightforward, chain-free home offered via the Modern Method of Auction with a starting bid of £60,000. The house provides spacious internal square footage (approximately 926 sq ft) across two reception rooms and two bedrooms — a practical layout that suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking immediate occupation or rental potential. Heating is gas-fired with a boiler and radiators; double glazing was installed post-2002.
Externally there is a private rear yard with an open outlook over allotments and a small buffer garden to the front. Broadband and mobile signal are both strong in the area, and local amenities including shops and bus links are within walking distance. Council Tax band A indicates low ongoing local tax costs.
Buyers must note this sale is by auction: a non-refundable reservation fee applies (4.5% of purchase price, minimum £6,600 including VAT) and completion is required within 56 days of the draft contract. The property is freehold and sold with no onward chain. A buyer information pack is available but purchasers are advised to carry out their own due diligence.
Location and condition are mixed: the house sits in an area classified with high deprivation and above-average crime levels, and the accommodation is presented in basic, habitable condition with some dated fittings. These factors keep the entry price low and may suit purchasers prepared to refurbish or investors targeting rental yield rather than a finished turnkey home.
