Description

Offered at auction on 11 November 2026, this vacant five-bedroom mid-terraced house has accommodation arranged over four floors. The listing describes fire and smoke damage and says a programme of repair and renovation is required. The property is currently secured with boarding to the windows, and buyers are advised to view and make their own enquiries before bidding. The accommodation includes a lower-ground-floor utility room and kitchen with a separate rear garden entrance, a study or living room, a storeroom with potential bedroom use, and a shower room. The ground floor has an entrance hall, lounge, dining room and open-plan kitchen with fitted units and a breakfast bar. On the upper floors are five bedrooms, a dressing room or study, an en-suite shower room, a bathroom and a further shower room. Outside, there is a front forecourt and a rear garden with patio and lawn. The listing notes the property may suit use as a large home or letting, and mentions possible conversion to flats subject to planning and other consents. It is leasehold, with an EPC rating of D. The sale is by unconditional online auction, with binding contracts exchanged at the point of sale; buyers should review the legal pack and auction terms, including applicable fees.

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

44out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This is a substantial five-bedroom, four-floor house with several reception spaces and multiple washrooms, giving a buyer a sizeable canvas to repair and reshape. The listing reports deliberate fire and smoke damage, with severe staining and damaged finishes in the entrance and a principal living room, and worn finishes elsewhere; the £65,000–£125,000 renovation range reflects a major project. The stone frontage appears standing, and the fitted kitchens and washrooms provide existing infrastructure to work with.

At £300,000, the price-to-value picture cannot yet be judged against local £/sq ft because the floor area is missing; the £395,000 purchase-plus-renovation midpoint also cannot be tested against a stated end value. The location near universities, hospitals and local amenities, plus the scale and flexible accommodation, are positives, but the overall score is E (44/100). This is an opportunity for a buyer equipped to manage a full repair programme, rather than a straightforward value-led purchase. It is being sold by auction on a guide price; bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay at this level.

Key opportunities

  • Use the four-floor layout, multiple reception spaces and five bedrooms to create a large family home or explore a different configuration, subject to consents.
  • Repair and refinish the smoke-damaged entrance and principal living room, then renew worn flooring and marked finishes across the photographed spaces.
  • Make use of the existing fitted kitchens and multiple washrooms as a starting point while updating the interiors to suit the intended use.

Key risks

  • The £65,000–£125,000 works range and extensive fire and smoke damage make this a full repair programme with significant budget and scheduling demands, not a cosmetic refresh.
  • Deliberate fire and smoke damage is reported, with severe staining and damaged finishes visible in several areas; some ground-floor openings are boarded.
