Description
Offered at auction, this three-bedroom terraced house in Baffins has accommodation arranged over two floors, including a front living room, central kitchen and rear reception room opening to a lean-to. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. An arched opening links the main and second bedrooms and could be altered to restore separate access, subject to inspection. The property is described as dated and in need of modernisation, providing scope for a purchaser to update the accommodation. Outside, there is a front forecourt and a west-facing rear garden, currently mainly concrete. The auction is scheduled for 9 December 2026, with a buyer administration fee and any legal-pack disbursements payable as applicable.

Grade BGood opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £160,000, this three-bedroom Baffins terrace is priced at about £171 per sq ft, well below the local average of £288 — a strong entry point for a buyer looking to create value. The dated finishes across the house make this a clear medium-scale project, with scope to refresh the interiors, modernise the kitchen and bathroom, and improve the concrete rear garden. The arched opening between two bedrooms is an unusual feature that could be reinstated to restore a more conventional layout, subject to inspection. The listing is by auction: bidding can take the hammer price above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap.
Key opportunities
- Refresh the dated decoration and floor coverings across the living spaces and bedrooms.
- Modernise the older kitchen and bathroom as part of a coherent interior update.
- Improve the cracked, uneven and weedy rear garden, and consider reinstating the arched bedroom opening to create a more conventional three-bedroom arrangement, subject to inspection.
