Description
Offered at auction, this two-bedroom through terrace in Halton Moor has a lounge, dining kitchen, entrance hall and lean-to on the ground floor, with two bedrooms and a bathroom above. The property has double glazing and a recently installed central-heating boiler, although the listing notes that some first-floor panes may need attention.
A small fire caused smoke damage to the first floor, while the ground floor was largely unaffected and is described as needing general modernisation. Outside, there is a rear yard with a garage and store, plus a small front yard overlooking communal green space. The property is freehold and has an EPC rating of C.
The sale is by live-streamed auction under the unconditional sale method, with binding contracts exchanged at the point of sale. The auction is scheduled to take place over two days commencing 25 November 2026; the specific day and lot number are to be confirmed. Buyers should review the legal pack and account for the stated deposit and buyer’s fee. The location provides access to the M1 at junction 45, the Pontefract Road industrial estate and York Road routes towards Leeds city centre.

Confidence: MEDIUM
At £95,000, the guide is about 1% below the local average per square foot, so the entry price is broadly competitive. But this is a heavy project: the first-floor fire damage and smoke staining, alongside dated finishes elsewhere, mean the purchase price plus a substantial programme of works looks stretched against local benchmarks for a house of this size; that comparison is not a post-renovation value forecast. The sale is by auction, and bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap.
There is still a clear project here: a through terrace with two double bedrooms, a large lounge, a rear yard, and a garage/store, with central heating and double glazing noted in the description. Fire remediation and making-good could be combined with a broader update to the kitchen, bathroom and finishes, but the fire damage and smoke staining in several rooms make this a substantial, carefully scoped job rather than a cosmetic refresh.
Key opportunities
- Rework the two-bedroom terrace as a coherent whole: remediate the fire-affected areas and make good the smoke-stained finishes, while updating the dated kitchen, bathroom and flooring.
- Improve the large lounge and dining-kitchen areas, then clear and tidy the hard-surfaced rear yard; the visible garage/store adds useful practical space.
Key risks
- Fire-damaged and smoke-stained interiors across the photographed bedrooms call for a full, coordinated remediation and making-good programme, with more time and oversight than a cosmetic refresh.
- Even at a guide slightly below the local £/sqf average, the purchase price combined with substantial works looks stretched against local benchmarks for this floor area; the guide is not a post-works value forecast.
