Situated in a quiet and picturesque part of Bideford, just a short stroll from the River Torridge, Victoria Park and the Town Centre, this charming terraced house presents a wonderful opportunity for those seeking a conveniently located home with great potential. Available for sale with no onward chain, the property combines character, practicality and scope for improvement - ideal for first time buyers, investors or anyone looking to add their own personal touch.

To the front of the property is a private driveway providing valuable off-road parking for 1 large vehicle - a rare and highly sought after feature in this part of town, with additional on-street parking also available nearby. Inside, the home begins with a cosy front Living Room enjoying views over the driveway, complemented by a larger second Reception Room which would make an excellent dining or family room. The Kitchen is well-fitted with a range of cupboards, drawers and work surfaces, along with a 1.5-bowl sink unit, tumble dryer, washing machine, fridge/freezer, oven and hob, all included in the sale. From here, a door leads out to a compact courtyard garden offering a pleasant outdoor space to sit and relax.

Upstairs, the property features 2 well-proportioned Bedrooms, including a spacious main bedroom with a large over-stairs storage cupboard. The Bathroom is fitted with a close couple WC, a pedestal wash basin and a bath with a shower over, along with a cupboard housing the gas fired combination boiler.

While the property would benefit from some modernisation and remedial works (including the replacement of certain floorboards, the reaffixing of radiators and some damp attention), it offers fantastic value in an appealing central location.

With its proximity to the river, park and amenities, as well as the advantage of private parking, this property has all the makings of a lovely home once updated. Early viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the potential on offer.

Auctioneer Comments
This property is for sale by the Modern Method of Auction. Should you view, offer or bid on the property, your information will be shared with the Auctioneer, iamsold Limited.

This method of auction requires both parties to complete the transaction within 56 days of the draft contract for sale being received by the buyers solicitor. This additional time allows buyers to proceed with mortgage finance (subject to lending criteria, affordability and survey).

The buyer is required to sign a reservation agreement and make payment of a non-refundable Reservation Fee. This being 4.5% of the purchase price including VAT, subject to a minimum of £6,600.00 including VAT. The Reservation Fee is paid in addition to the purchase price and will be considered as part of the chargeable consideration for the property in the calculation for stamp duty liability. Buyers will be required to go through an identification verification process with iamsold and provide proof of how the purchase would be funded.

This property has a Buyer Information Pack which is a collection of documents in relation to the property. The documents may not tell you everything you need to know about the property, so you are required to complete your own due diligence before bidding. A sample copy of the Reservation Agreement and terms and conditions are also contained within this pack. The buyer will also make payment of £300 including VAT towards the preparation cost of the pack, where it has been provided by iamsold.

The property is subject to an undisclosed Reserve Price with both the Reserve Price and Starting Bid being subject to change.
