Description
Offered at auction, this three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Landkey has a sizeable enclosed rear garden and scope for substantial refurbishment. The ground floor is arranged with an entrance hall, a lounge-diner and a kitchen, alongside a bathroom. Upstairs are two double bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower room, and a smaller third room that could also serve as a dressing or storage space.
The lounge-diner measures approximately 6.95m by 3.92m and has a fireplace and access towards the rear garden. The kitchen has fitted wall and base cupboards, a sink and space for appliances and a cooker. The main bathroom includes a bath, basin and WC. The first-floor en-suite has a shower, basin and WC.
Outside, a gated path and small courtyard-style area sit at the front. The enclosed rear garden includes a patio and steps leading to a larger, mature garden. The property is described as requiring extensive modernisation, so buyers should make their own enquiries and assess the work required before bidding. The sale is subject to auction conditions, with the legal pack and special conditions available through the auction listing.

68out of 100
Grade CPotential opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £130,000, this three-bedroom terrace is priced at £149/sq ft against a local average of £272/sq ft, giving buyers a notably low entry point for a substantial project. The photographed interiors have worn finishes and visible wall deterioration in several rooms, while the kitchen and both bathrooms offer clear scope to rework; the sizeable enclosed garden is another opportunity, though it needs clearing and attention to the patio and steps. The slate roof shows no obvious major failure in the submitted views, but should be inspected closely.
The score is 68/100, a C: the attractive asking price and strong economics are balanced by the scale of the work and an average location score. The £55,000–£95,000 renovation range makes this a full refurbishment programme rather than a cosmetic refresh, so budget and timescale matter. The listing describes an online auction; bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap.
Key opportunities
- The lounge-diner and three-bedroom layout provide a useful canvas to modernise as a family home.
- The worn fitted kitchen and dated main bathroom and en-suite allow a buyer to reshape the key everyday spaces to their own specification.
- The sizeable enclosed rear garden could become a strong outdoor feature once the overgrowth is cleared and the patio and steps are improved.
Key risks
- The £55,000–£95,000 works range and deterioration across the photographed interiors make this a major budget and programme commitment, not a cosmetic refresh.
