Description

Offered at auction on 2 December 2026, this freehold three-bedroom detached house is a 1970s brick-built former vicarage in Rawmarsh. The accommodation is arranged over two floors and includes an entrance hall, ground-floor WC, kitchen/dining room, lounge, study and rear porch. Upstairs are three bedrooms, a bathroom and a separate WC. The property also has front and rear gardens and an attached single garage with rear access. The house requires comprehensive renovation. Its plot may offer scope to make changes or extend, subject to checking feasibility and obtaining any necessary consents. Buyers should review the legal pack before bidding, as the property is subject to restrictive covenants. The sale is by online unconditional auction, with the stated deposit and buyer’s fee payable under the auction terms.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

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

48out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This detached former vicarage offers a substantial project: several living spaces, three bedrooms, an attached garage and a generous plot give a buyer plenty to work with. The partly dismantled kitchen, poor bathroom and WC, worn finishes across multiple rooms and overgrown rear garden create scope for a full transformation; the exterior views show no obvious major failure, though a survey is needed. The £55,000–£95,000 renovation range reflects a significant job, and the 48/100 grade E score makes this a lower-opportunity prospect overall.

The £125,000 guide price cannot yet be judged against local £/sqf because the floor area is missing. As this is an auction, bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap.

Key opportunities

  • Rework the several living spaces and three-bedroom layout to suit a buyer’s needs while retaining the detached-house character.
  • Replace the partly dismantled kitchen and improve the bathroom and separate WC as part of a comprehensive interior upgrade.
  • Clear and reshape the overgrown rear garden to make better use of the generous plot; the listing also mentions possible extension potential, subject to feasibility.

Key risks

  • Debris, damaged or unfinished surfaces across multiple rooms, a partly dismantled kitchen and a heavily overgrown garden make this a full-gut programme; allow £55,000–£95,000 and plan for a substantial budget and timetable, not a cosmetic refresh.
