The one-bedroom property, in Freeland Road, is being offered with a leasehold guide price of £60,000 to £70,000.

It is among 162 lots in the latest auction being held by Clive Emson Land and Property Auctioneers.

The auction ends later this month.

Regional director and auctioneer Paul Bridgeman said: “Currently let at £7,800 per annum on an assured shorthold tenancy, we consider this flat to be perfect for continued investment.
