Description

Offered at auction, this three-bedroom 1930s semi-detached house is within walking distance of Ludlow town centre and is described as requiring modernisation and improvement. The ground floor has an entrance hall, living room, dining room, breakfast room and kitchen. Upstairs are two double bedrooms, a single bedroom and a bathroom. Gas-fired radiator heating is stated, along with mains electricity, water and drainage, and the property is offered with no onward chain. Outside, a driveway leads to a large garage, which connects back to the breakfast room. The enclosed rear garden includes a paved seating area, lawn and shed. The sale is by traditional online auction, with exchange when the bidding timer ends if the reserve is met and completion due within 28 days. A buyer's premium is payable; prospective bidders should check the legal pack and auction conditions for the applicable fees and terms.

71out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This is a strong-value project: the £165,000 guide price is about 34% below the local average per square foot, giving buyers scope to acquire a traditional 1930s semi and shape it to their own taste. Its walkable position near Ludlow town centre, large enclosed garden, driveway and substantial garage add to the appeal. The photographed interiors call for a medium-scale update, with worn floors and particularly tired kitchen and bathroom finishes; the exterior looks intact in the supplied views, though the roof and fabric still need checking in person.

It is being sold by online auction. Bidding can take the hammer price above the guide, so the eventual purchase price may not stay this cheap.

Key opportunities

  • Update the older kitchen and bathroom and refresh the worn finishes across the photographed rooms.
  • Make the large enclosed garden, paved seating area and established planting a standout outdoor space with routine improvement.
  • Use the driveway and large garage as practical everyday assets alongside the traditional 1930s character and walkable town-centre location.
