Description

This two-bedroom mid-terrace home presents a compelling renovation project in a well-established residential area, close to the amenities of Runcorn Old Town. The property requires comprehensive modernisation, making it an excellent opportunity for investors or individuals looking to create a bespoke living space. Entering through the hallway, you will find a convenient downstairs W.C. The front kitchen offers ample space for a reconfiguration to suit contemporary living, while the rear living room boasts generous dimensions and overlooks the courtyard, providing a pleasant atmosphere for family gatherings or entertaining. Upstairs, the two sizeable bedrooms benefit from natural light and hold potential for personalisation. A family bathroom is also on this level, ready for updating to meet modern standards. Externally, the property features a small courtyard at the front and benefits from an attached garage—an asset in urban settings that can provide off-street parking or additional storage options. Its location within walking distance of local shops, transport links including Runcorn train station, and proximity to key roads like the Mersey Gateway Bridge enhances its appeal for both homeowners and renters alike. With no upward chain and being sold via online auction with flexible terms, this property holds promise as either a profitable rental investment or a charming residence tailored to your preferences.
