Two-bedroom flat hits the market for just £10,000 but be prepared to do a very deep clean

A two-bedroom flat has gone on sale for just £10,000, but it will need an enormous cleaning job.

According to photos of the property in Paisley, Scotland, it is being branded a "great refurbishment project" with rubbish scattered in every room.

The flat has a large living room, bathroom, galley kitchen and two enormously sized bedrooms with a storage cupboard, and a well-sized shared garden to the back.

There's no doubt it has potential, but it's in dire need of a deep clean.

The new homeowner can expect to find empty drink cans, crisp packets and food containers dotted across the table.

The kitchen counters are covered with empty mugs, packets of butter and kitchen utensils – with no spare space in sight.

Dirt and grime coat the entire room from the kitchen top to the floor, with dirty pans still on the cooker.

Walking through the hallway, old letters remain on the floor alongside an old Stella Artois cardboard box.

In the living room, it looks as if someone started to tidy with bags of items stacked on the floor – but an old bottle of HP sauce remains on the table, adding to the never-ending list of things to clear up.

According to Zoopla, the property is the second cheapest in town and with the cost-of-living crisis growing by the day, this first-floor flat could present a first-time buyer or budding house flipper with a golden opportunity.

Just a 21-minute commute to Glasgow, the location is convenient for those escaping big city life or simply enjoying the area’s wide range of bars, restaurants, shops, and amenities.

Mandi Cooper, managing director of Auction House Scotland said: “Close to various amenities, transport links and Paisley town centre, this flat would be perfect for a developer or first-time buyer looking to get stuck into a renovation project and offers a fantastic opportunity to add value.

“Equally, buy-to-let investors could be attracted by the strong potential rental yield of the property upon completion of its refurbishment.”

Open viewings are taking place ahead of the auction on Thursday October 20 from 12:30pm to 1:00pm and Tuesday October 25 from 3:00pm to 3:30pm.

The property will be going under the hammer at Auction House Scotland’s in-room space at 2pm on Thursday November 3.
