This is an in-room auction which will also be live-streamed with availability for internet, telephone and proxy bidding.

Offering an excellent opportunity to refurbish, this mature bay-fronted semi-detached house stands within a large plot with generous-size gardens and is well located within close proximity of both Goldington and Castle Road.

Description
This mid-twentieth century house is nicely set back from a residential side road with a generous front garden and a driveway that leads to a brick-and-timber-built double-length garage which has an asbestos roof. To the rear of the house is a long garden which has been cleared of foliage in preparation for landscaping. Internally, although the condition of the house is dated and very poor, there are some good-sized and well-proportioned rooms, and the house offers the potential to enlarge at both the side and to the rear, subject to the required consents.

Accommodation
Ground Floor: Entrance hall, sitting room, dining room, kitchen, and WC.
First Floor: Landing, three bedrooms, bathroom, and a separate toilet.

Exterior
There is a low brick wall to the front boundary with a hedge behind it and a hedge to one side boundary. At the rear is a large garden that has been cleared of vegetation, and there is timber fencing to the boundaries.

Note
The sole beneficiary of the proceeds of this sale is The National Trust. As the Trust is a charity, if the buyer is a connected person to the Trust then the sale will be on a conditional basis as Charity Commission consent will be required for the disposal. Full details will be included within the legal pack.
