The lowest priced house in the West Midlands will go under the hammer at SDL Auctions Bigwood’s next auction in Birmingham on Wednesday 18 October.

The three bedroomed terraced house at 51 Leamore Lane in Walsall is said to need a complete refurbishment but has a *guide price of only £19,000 to £24,000+.

Gurpreet Bassi, head of residential auctions at SDL Auctions, said: “We believe this Walsall property is the lowest priced house currently on sale in the West Midlands.

“This lot would make an excellent opportunity either as an investment purchase or as a first home, and we expect strong interest at our auction.”

Another property expected to draw competitive bidding is a first floor, purpose-built studio flat in communal grounds at 26 Bromford Close, 152 Church Lane in Handsworth, Birmingham.

This property, which comes with a guide price of £15,000 to £19,000+, is thought to be the lowest priced flat currently on sale across the West Midlands.
