Description

This detached six-bedroom property in Larkhill is currently arranged as an HMO and is offered with no upward chain.

The property is being sold by the Modern Method of Auction through iamsold.

The auction terms require completion within 56 days of receipt of the draft contract, subject to the stated conditions.

Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £220,000, this detached six-bedroom HMO is offered at £119/sq ft, well below the local average of £273/sq ft—an unusually low entry point that gives the project its strongest appeal. The visible interiors are extensively stripped or unfinished, with debris, worn floors and damaged or incomplete finishes, while the rear garden is heavily overgrown. This is a substantial, hands-on renovation rather than a cosmetic refresh, but it offers scope to reshape and finish the existing HMO accommodation to suit your plans.

The photos show no obvious major structural failure, though the roof condition cannot be confirmed. The listing describes a Modern Method of Auction sale; bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap. Check the auction terms, HMO licensing and any permissions relevant to your plans before proceeding.

Key opportunities

  • Acquire a detached six-bedroom property at a notably low price per square foot compared with the local average.
  • Rework and complete the existing HMO accommodation, using the multiple visible rooms as a canvas for a more coherent layout and finish.
  • Clear and improve the heavily overgrown rear garden as part of a broader transformation of the property.

Key risks

  • Stripped and unfinished rooms, damaged or incomplete finishes and debris point to a heavy full-interior rebuild; allow for a longer, more involved programme than a cosmetic refresh.
  • The roof condition cannot be confirmed from the ground-level photographs and should be checked as part of due diligence.
