Are you a property investor or DIY enthusiast on the lookout for your next big project? On Thursday 5th December, we will be bringing an exciting opportunity to the market: a three-bedroom terraced house on Haig Road, South Shore, Blackpool. With a guide price of just £12,000-£15,000, this property is a rare bargain—but there’s a catch.
This property, just steps away from the iconic Blackpool promenade and seafront, offers plenty of potential for those willing to take on a serious renovation challenge. The home’s layout spans a generous 1,140 square feet (source: EPC) but be warned—this house isn’t for the faint of heart. The property is a complete “strip out and re-fit” project, requiring total refurbishment.
One of the key issues prospective buyers will need to address is a pigeon infestation. Interior images captured during an inspection in June 2023 revealed several birds occupying the interior, leaving the home littered with droppings. The internal condition has deteriorated to the extent that viewings will not be permitted for safety reasons. Additionally, no recent inspections have been conducted, so the property’s current state is based on the available imagery and prior assessments.
Despite its challenges, this terraced house has significant potential for transformation. Its proximity to the beach and vibrant Blackpool attractions makes it a prime location for a variety of uses, from a family home to a lucrative holiday rental—once renovated. The competitive guide price reflects the level of work required, presenting an incredible opportunity for ambitious renovators. In the words of Guy Charrison, Director, and Auctioneer here at Network Auctions, “Where there’s muck, there’s money.” This property is the perfect example of an untapped investment waiting to be uncovered.
