Description
This three-bedroom terraced house offers 849 sq ft of accommodation over two floors and is offered at auction by the Modern Method of Auction. The ground floor includes a front-facing living room, a kitchen/diner with units requiring substantial updating, a rear lobby and a separate WC. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a bathroom with a bath.
The property is being sold as seen and requires complete renovation. The radiators have been disconnected, so remedial work to the central heating system will be needed. It is of non-standard construction and is offered to cash buyers only. A long rear garden provides outdoor space. The home is freehold, has all main services, an EPC rating of C72 and Council Tax Band A.
Local amenities and leisure facilities include Asda Donnington Wood Superstore, ALDI, The Shropshire Golf Centre, Oakengates Leisure Centre and McDonald's. Buyers should review the auction information pack and account for the reservation fee and other stated purchase costs before bidding.

72out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £55,000, this three-bedroom, 849 sq ft terrace is exceptionally cheap against the local average at £65/sq ft versus £258/sq ft, giving a buyer an unusually low entry point for a substantial renovation project. The long rear garden and two-floor layout offer scope to reshape and personalise the home, with a full kitchen update, refreshed bathroom, new finishes and garden clearance all part of the transformation. The score is 72/100, a good opportunity overall, supported by strong price and project economics despite the limited condition score.
This is a full-scale job rather than a cosmetic refresh: the interior is extensively worn, the listing says the radiators are disconnected, and the house is described as non-standard construction. The £45,000–£85,000 renovation range gives a sense of the work involved; construction type and heating remedials warrant careful investigation and budgeting.
Key opportunities
- The three-bedroom, two-floor layout provides a clear starting point for a personalised home, with scope to update the living space and kitchen/diner.
- A complete kitchen and bathroom refresh, alongside new flooring and wall finishes, offers a chance to give the interior a coherent contemporary feel.
- The long rear garden can be cleared and improved to make better use of its length and outdoor space.
Key risks
- Worn finishes across the interior, garden debris and substantial updating make this a full-gut-scale programme, with a £45,000–£85,000 works range to budget and schedule rather than a cosmetic refresh.
- The property is described as non-standard construction, so obtain appropriate specialist advice before committing to works or finance.
- The radiators are disconnected; establish the condition and cost of remedial work to the central heating system.
