House-hunters looking for a prospective bargain on the market could do a lot worse than a two-bed home in Glenrothes on the market for £40,000. The terraced villa, on Alexander Road in the Fife town, is described as having "excellent potential in a popular residential setting".
It is well placed, with local amenities like the Kingdom Shopping Centre, a primary school and the local bus station all within walking distance. It all sounds very lucrative, and has the makings of a proper steal. There's just one catch - the house is covered in rubbish.
Auction House Scotland has shared images of the cut-price homestead online before it goes to auction next week. From the outside, the tan-coloured terrace looks perfectly ordinary but heading inside reveals that it is in need of some serious TLC.
