Offered for sale at a guide price of £135,000, this extended two-bedroom mid-terraced house presents a fantastic opportunity for investors or cash buyers seeking a property to modernise  and add value. Situated on the well-regarded Apperley Road in Idle, the home is located within an attractive row of similar character properties, just a short distance from the picturesque surroundings of Apperley Bridge. With no onward chain, this home is ideal for those ready to move quickly and take advantage of its potential.

Arranged over two floors, the property comprises two reception rooms on the ground floor — including a rear sitting room housed within a single storey extension — offering a flexible layout for a couple. The kitchen requires some modernisation, but offers a good footprint for redesign. Upstairs, the home features two double bedrooms and a bathroom. Additionally, there is the exciting potential to create a further room in the roof space, as seen in neighbouring homes on the road, subject to the necessary permissions.

The property benefits from gas central heating and UPVC double glazing, and retains some charming original features that could be tastefully incorporated into a future refurbishment. Externally, there are enclosed gardens to both the front and rear, providing useable outdoor space. The home's rear garden also enjoys a good degree of privacy. A 2 minute walk away finds the garage and drive parking. 

Conveniently positioned for a range of local amenities, the house lies just a few minutes' walk from Idle village centre, with its shops, cafes and everyday conveniences. Supermarkets such as Sainsbury's and Morrisons are within a 10-minute drive, while nearby schools including Idle C of E Primary School and Immanuel College are also easily accessed. Healthcare needs are met by nearby GP surgeries and the Eccleshill NHS Treatment Centre.
For leisure, the property sits close to the Leeds-Liverpool Canal and local nature trails, perfect for walkers and cyclists. Eccleshill Pool, local sports centres and golf clubs are all within easy reach. Apperley Bridge railway station is just under two miles away, offering regular services to Leeds, Bradford and beyond. Leeds Bradford International Airport is also only around 20 minutes by car.

Offering a great deal of potential in a sought-after location, this charming terrace would suit an investor or owner-occupier willing to invest in updating and modernising the interior. With similar properties in the row successfully extended and refurbished, there is clear scope for capital growth and personalisation. Viewings are highly recommended to appreciate both the setting and the potential this property holds.

Auctioneer's Comments

The Modern Method of Auction allows the purchaser 28 days to achieve exchange of contracts from the date the buyer's solicitor is in receipt of the draft contracts and a further 28 days thereafter to complete. Allowing the additional time to exchange on the property means interested parties can proceed with traditional residential finance. Upon close of a successful auction or if the vendor accepts an offer during the auction, the buyer will be required to put down a non-refundable Reservation Fee of 3% to a minimum of £5,000.00 + VAT (£1,000.00) = (£6,000.00) which secures the sale and takes the property off the market. Fees paid to the Auctioneer are in addition to the price agreed. Further clarification on this must be sought from your legal representative. The buyer will be required to sign an Acknowledgement of Reservation form to confirm acceptance of terms prior to solicitors being instructed. Copies of the Reservation form and all terms and conditions can be found in the Buyer Information Pack which can be downloaded for free from the auction section of our website or requested from our Auction Department. Please note this property is subject to a reserve price which is generally no more than 10% in excess of the Starting Bid, both the Starting Bid and reserve price can be subject to change.

Energy Performance Certificate (EPCs)
Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) give information on how to make your home more energy efficient and reduce your energy costs. All homes bought, sold or rented require an EPC. EPCs carry ratings that compare the current energy efficiency and estimated costs of energy use with potential figures that your home could achieve. Potential figures are calculated by estimating what the energy efficiency and energy costs could be if energy saving measures were put in place. The rating measures the energy efficiency of your home using a grade from ‘A' to ‘G'. An ‘A' rating is the most efficient, while ‘G' is the least efficient. The average efficiency grade to date is ‘D'. All homes are measured using the same calculations, so you can compare the energy efficiency of different properties.
