How would you like to buy a Cumbrian home for as little as £35,000 ?
You might be able to buy a house close to this figure at auction.
According to Zoopla, the average property price in Cumbria has increased by 4.44% in the last three months.
However, auctioned properties offer an affordable way to get your foot on the property ladder- that’s if you are a savvy bidder of course.
Here are five properties from north, east and west Cumbria that are being auctioned off. Will you be placing a bid?
Main Road, High Harrington, Workington
Guide price: £35,000
This is one of the cheapest properties being auctioned off in Cumbria.
However, it needs a lot of love, time and TLC before it can be lived in.
The property has three bedrooms, a forecourt and even a rear garden.
There is also a conservatory on the property, but it needs to be fixed up and redecorated.
This property is being sold via auction on the 17th December at 12pm.
