A compact Victorian mid-terrace in West Town, Peterborough, offered through the Modern Method of Auction. The house has useful recent updates: a modern kitchen, fully tiled wet room and a newly fitted gas combi boiler, bringing immediate comfort while leaving scope for personalisation. With an EPC C and fast FTTP broadband, the home is functional for everyday living or let-ready with modest work.
Internally the layout is traditional: living room, dining room, kitchen, three bedrooms and a low-maintenance rear garden. Rooms are small to average in size, so the house suits couples, small families or buy-to-let purchasers aiming for city-centre rental demand. On-street parking (permit) and excellent mobile coverage suit modern commuting and connectivity needs.
Notable drawbacks are material. The property requires renovation and redecoration in places: replacement windows, new flooring and cosmetic repairs are likely to add cost. The building is solid-brick with no known wall insulation, which could affect heating bills despite the new boiler. Crime levels in the immediate area are recorded as very high; prospective buyers should consider security measures and insurance implications.
Buyers must note this sale is by auction. A Buyer Information Pack and a non-refundable Reservation Fee (4.8% of the purchase price, minimum £6,600 inc VAT) apply, plus buyer’s fees — read the auction terms carefully before bidding. Selective licensing may apply for rental use; do your due diligence with local authorities and surveyors before purchase.
