Description
Offered through the Modern Method of Auction, this two-bedroom terraced cottage in Exning is being sold with no onward chain and is described as requiring modernisation. The accommodation begins with an entrance porch and continues into a sitting room with a wood-burning stove, open to a dining area. The kitchen is positioned in a rear extension, while upstairs are two double bedrooms, a bathroom and a useful loft area accessed from the landing.
At the rear, a long enclosed garden is mainly laid to lawn, with access on foot across a neighbouring garden. The property is within reach of local amenities and has access to Newmarket, Cambridge and the A14 and A11. Buyers should note the auction reservation fee and other terms, and check the buyer information pack and property details before proceeding.

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
75out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £140,000, this two-bedroom cottage is priced at £173 per sq ft against a local average of £338, making the asking price a standout acquisition opportunity. The clean but plainly finished interiors, older kitchen and bathroom, and overgrown long garden give a buyer scope for a light, targeted refresh, while the open sitting/dining space and wood-burning stove add character. The listing describes a cash-buyer-only sale and access to the garden across a neighbouring property, so check the sale terms and access arrangements carefully.
Key opportunities
- Refresh the older kitchen and bathroom fittings to give the cottage a more current feel.
- Clear and manage the long enclosed garden, making better use of its existing decked and paved area.
- Update the basic finishes selectively while retaining the open sitting/dining layout and wood-burning stove as character features.
Key risks
- The listing says garden access is across a neighbouring garden; verify the access rights and practical arrangements.
- The cash-buyer-only condition may narrow the available purchase options; confirm the requirements and sale terms.
