3 bed semi-detached house to buy in DL13

Grade II Listed Building.

Nestled in the tranquil village of Swinhopeburn, Westgate, this charming semi-detached farmhouse offers a unique opportunity for those seeking a peaceful rural lifestyle. With three spacious bedrooms, this property is perfect for families or individuals looking for a serene retreat. The house boasts two inviting reception rooms, providing ample space for relaxation and entertaining.

While the farmhouse retains many original features that add character and charm, it is important to note that it requires renovation, allowing you to put your personal touch on the home. The property is equipped with solid fuel and LPG heating, ensuring warmth during the colder months. Additionally, it benefits from a shared septic tank with the neighbouring property, which is a practical consideration for potential buyers.

One of the standout features of this property is the generous parking space, accommodating up to five vehicles, making it ideal for those with multiple cars or visitors. The land included within the sale offers further potential for gardening, outdoor activities, or even expansion of the property, subject to the necessary permissions.

Situated in a secluded rural position, this farmhouse provides a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of city life, while still being within reach of local amenities. If you are looking for a project that combines the charm of an old farmhouse with the potential for modern living, this property in Swinhopeburn is certainly worth considering.

ONLINE AUCTION NOTICE

I hereby acknowledge and confirm the following:

My bid may be accepted by the seller at any time before the close of the auction. It is subject to the terms and conditions of the auction which I have read and understood. I have read and understood the legal pack applicable to my bid/lot and agree to be bound by any special conditions within that pack.

If my bid is successful (whether as the highest bid or upon acceptance by the seller in the course of the auction) I shall be bound by the lot terms and conditions as advertised online.

Any amount payable at the close of the auction must be paid within 1 hour.

Please note that the bidding process will work in a different way to an eBay auction, so there is NO advantage to bidding at the last second.

Each auction will automatically stay open until there has not been a bid within the final 10 minutes. If no bid has been submitted within the final 10 minutes of the auction, the auction will close and the highest bidder will be successful subject to the reserve price being met or upon acceptance of an offer by the seller throughout the auction cycle. If there is another bid within 10 minutes of the last bid, the auction countdown timer will be restarted for another 10 minutes to allow further bidding. This system avoids last-minute (or second) bidding and makes for a fairer auction as in a live-room auction situation.

Please bid in good time before the end of the auction, delaying your bid to the last seconds may disadvantage you if your connection slows or you lose internet connectivity.

The auctioneer is not responsible for any tech issues, power outage or error messages which hampers or eliminates an individual's opportunity to bid.

It is the bidder's responsibility to ensure the bid has been lodged with the auctioneer. It is therefore beneficial to bid on your chosen lot at your earliest opportunity.

The auctioneer accepts no responsibility for bids that are not received or are received late and reserves the right to reject any bid without notice.

£50,000 - £250 minimum bid
