This mid-terrace three-bedroom Victorian house on Queen Victoria Road is a clear project for cash buyers and investors. Sold freehold via online auction with a starting bid of £40,000, it offers spacious rooms (approx. 1,023 sq ft) and period features such as high ceilings and arched windows that invite a sympathetic refurbishment.
The layout includes an entrance hallway, lounge/diner, kitchen, three first-floor bedrooms and a family bathroom. The property has a small front garden and benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing (install date unknown) and fast broadband — useful for future tenants or resale appeal in this central location close to amenities and transport links.
Key considerations are practical: the house needs renovation throughout and the front garden is overgrown. The area shows high crime levels and very high local deprivation, which will affect rental values and resale timing. The sale is by auction; buyers should factor in the non-refundable deposit (5% on exchange) and a possible reservation fee (up to 6% inc. VAT, minimum £7,200), plus usual legal and repair costs.
For the experienced investor or developer, this property provides budget entry into Blackpool’s FY1 market, with solid scope to add value through refurbishment. Prospective buyers should review the legal pack, budget for renovation works, and consider local market risks before bidding.
