Description
Offered at auction on 9 December 2026, this freehold three-bedroom house has a front bay window and a layout comprising an entrance hall, sitting room, dining room and kitchen on the ground floor, with three bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs. The property is set back from the road, with a front garden and side access to a generous rear garden.

A £1,500 administration fee applies, and prospective buyers should review the legal pack for any disbursements.

45out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: LOW
This is a heavy structural project rather than a straightforward renovation: the listing reports that the rear wall has failed, and the photos show extensive damage around the rear openings and across internal finishes. The bay-fronted three-bedroom house has two stated reception rooms, a generous rear garden and side access, giving a buyer scope to rethink the interior and potentially explore the described rear extension, subject to feasibility.
At £120,000, the asking price cannot yet be judged against local £/sqf because the floor area is missing. This is a public auction, and bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap. The score is low overall, with the structural repair and full-gut scale the main challenge; the dated kitchen and bathroom, damaged finishes and overgrown garden also offer clear scope to reshape the property.
Key opportunities
- Rework the two stated reception rooms and three-bedroom layout as part of a full interior rebuild, making the most of the bay-fronted character.
- Explore the listing's rear-extension potential to create more generous family living space, subject to feasibility.
- Restore the generous rear garden and improve the front garden, with the listing also noting potential for off-road parking.
Key risks
- The reported rear-wall failure and damaged masonry around rear openings require structural investigation and repair before interior finishes can be rebuilt.
- Stripped and damaged areas across the rear rooms, alongside worn finishes and dated fittings, mean a heavy full-gut programme; plan for a substantial rebuild rather than a cosmetic refresh.
- The floor area is missing, so value against local £/sqf cannot yet be assessed.
