About this home
This property is for sale by Modern Method of Auction. Located on Front Street, Leadgate, this traditional red-brick mid-terrace property presents a fantastic opportunity for investors, property developers, or buyers eager to customize a home to their exact tastes. Offering approximately 734 sq.ft (68.2 sq.m) of total floor space, the property requires comprehensive interior modernization and cosmetic updating throughout, serving as a true blank canvas. Ground Floor The entrance hallway features a staircase leading to the first floor and opens into a generously sized living room measuring 14'7" x 13'0". This main reception room currently features wood-effect laminate flooring, a central fireplace with a surround, and a large window allowing for ample natural light, requiring only cosmetic redecoration. To the rear, the kitchen (11'11" x 7'7") is currently fitted with light wood-effect base and wall units and a stainless steel extractor hood, offering an ideal footprint for a complete modern refit. The ground floor is completed by a practical wet room (7'7" x 6'0") located just off the kitchen. First Floor The first-floor landing provides access to three bedrooms and a built-in storage cupboard. Bedroom 1 is a spacious master room (15'0" x 10'0") situated at the front of the property, currently stripped back to exposed floorboards and bare walls, ready for immediate renovation. Bedroom 2 (11'1" x 9'10") and Bedroom 3 (7'11" x 7'9") are both located at the rear of the home. Both rear bedrooms currently feature partially painted walls and exposed wooden floorboards, requiring fresh plastering, painting, and new floor coverings to realize their full potential. External The property features a classic red-brick front elevation with a small, walled front yard bordered by a paved path and a grass verge. To the rear is a private, low-maintenance enclosed yard secured by wooden fencing and a timber gate, providing functional outdoor space and rear parking. This property is priced to reflect the interior works required and represents a brilliant opportunity to restore a well-proportioned terraced house into a modern family home or a profitable rental asset. Early viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the full potential on offer.
