Description

Offered at auction, this two-bedroom end-of-terrace home sits on a plot of approximately 0.17 acres on the edge of Woodend. The accommodation is around 829 sq ft and includes an entrance porch and hall, sitting room, kitchen, rear lobby and ground-floor WC. Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. Heating and hot water are provided by an air source heat pump. The property is described as requiring complete refurbishment. Outside, the plot includes a front garden, a rear garden extending to more than 100 feet, substantial off-road parking, a detached double garage and two brick outbuildings. The rear outlook is towards open countryside. Woodend is between Blakesley and Weedon Lois. Nearby Blakesley has a shop and post office, a public house, a primary school and community facilities. Towcester, around six miles away, offers a wider range of shops and services, with road links to the A43 and A5. Buyers should consult the auction legal pack and verify the property’s condition, services and any intended works.

69out of 100
Grade CPotential opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £200,000, this is priced well below the local average per square foot, making the asking price a clear opportunity for a buyer seeking a substantial renovation project. The two-bedroom home has dated finishes and visible staining in several areas, while the long, overgrown rear garden is ready for clearance and improvement. The images do not establish a major structural failure, but the staining should be investigated before making good.

The setting and plot give the project particular appeal: there are countryside views, substantial off-road parking, a detached double garage and two brick outbuildings. The online auction guide is £200,000; bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap.

Key opportunities

  • Rework the dated interior as a coherent whole, including the kitchen, bathroom, finishes and flooring, rather than making piecemeal updates.
  • Clear and reshape the long rear garden to make better use of its established planting, countryside outlook and generous plot.
  • Make practical use of the substantial off-road parking, detached double garage and two brick outbuildings.

Key risks

  • Stripped-back finishes and a heavy whole-house programme — allow for a longer, more involved sequence of work than a cosmetic refresh.
  • Staining is visible in several areas; investigate its cause before redecorating or replacing finishes.
