Set to go under the hammer on the 21st July, Eastwood Lock Bungalow presents a rare opportunity for those seeking a waterside idyll.
Urban living doesn’t have to mean giving up tranquillity. Hidden pockets of calm still exist, and when they do, they’re quickly snapped up by eager buyers.
One such secret gem is Eastwood Lock Bungalow on Aldwarke Lane. Sitting on an expansive plot beside the canal, this private and peaceful property enjoys open views away from the hubbub of Rotheram’s busy centre.
Due to be sold via online auction on the 21st July for a guide price of £100,000 (plus fees), this lot presents a rare opportunity for peace-seekers or an investor hunting for a unique holiday let.
Private and peaceful
In its current configuration, the bungalow has three bedrooms, a spacious living room, and kitchen/diner. There’s also a family bathroom and separate W.C. While refurbishment is needed throughout, the property is brimming with potential and will be a perfect project for someone with vision.
Externally, there is plenty of garden to play with. This will appeal to keen gardeners who would relish the opportunity to nurture a flourishing landscape for themselves or future holiday guests.
Urban convenience meets countryside calm
The property may be ensconced in its own green cocoon, but it still provides easy access to urban conveniences. It sits just outside Rotherham’s centre, which is packed with shops and leisure and entertainment facilities.
The vibrant city of Sheffield is also just a 30-minute drive away, while the nearby M1 offers quick routes to Leeds, Nottingham and beyond.
Commenting on the property, Auction House Regional Manager Sam Harris said: “This canal-front property is an exceptional find, offering not just a home, but a lifestyle that’s rarely available. With serene views and a private setting, it’s a gem that encapsulates the benefits of waterside living.”
