“Fantastic investment opportunity”: Fire-damaged boarded up house with mattress-filled skip in the garden being auctioned off for £20,000

The house, listed on Rightmove, has a lounge, kitchen and dining room, one bathroom and two bedrooms. It has front and back gardens and off-street parking at the front of the property.

The home is being auction by Pattinson Estate Agents who say it would make “a fantastic investment opportunity for someone looking for a project.The house is in a small village almost nine miles from Durham.The estate agent expects a "high level of demand" for the "wonderful property" which will be auctioned online with a £20,000 guide price on 21st April.The property is boarded up and badly damaged by fire.

The lounge features a fireplace and laminate flooring as well as grassed gardens at the front and rear and off street parking. Early viewings for the "realistically priced" Council Band A house are encouraged to "avoid disappointment".Last month a Scottish house hunter said he had found what he called ‘the worst house in the UK’.The bungalow had two rotting sofas in the garden, green moss covering the walls and stones out front, and the door and window frames appear to be caving in.

The house had an interior filled with rubble and "Abandon all hope, you who enter in", with an arrow pointing through the door below.
