Compact starter house with driveway and sunny garden, sold at auction.
- Chain free: no onward chain
A modern two-bedroom semi-detached house offered chain-free and sold at online auction on 11th December 2025. The property suits first-time buyers or professionals seeking a low-maintenance starter home with off-street parking and a sunny south-west rear garden. EPC B and fast local broadband support energy efficiency and home working.
Internally the layout is straightforward: semi-open-plan living with a contemporary kitchen, ground-floor WC and two double bedrooms upstairs. The compact footprint (approx. 354 sq ft) makes the home easy to run but limits living and storage space — ideal for buyers wanting low upkeep rather than large rooms.
Practical considerations: the property is in an ex-mining area and buyers should obtain searches and legal advice before purchase. The sale is by auction and the buyer must pay the auction administration fee (£2,400 inc. VAT) on completion. There is no known flood risk and council tax is low, but the plot and overall internal size are small compared with typical family homes.
