Three-bed end terrace home in Blackpool for £12,000 but for a cost

One of Britain’s most affordable homes could sell for just £12,000 – but it comes with a mountain of pigeon poo.

The three-bed end terrace home, in Blackpool, Lancs., is set to be auctioned off on December 5 this year.

But the buyers of the home on Haig Road, close to the famed seafront, will have to contend with a feral bird infestation that has left it covered in faeces.

One marketing picture taken of the property – which cannot be viewed due to its poor condition – shows six pigeons sitting in a bedroom.

While the grim image further appears to show how the birds have carpeted the floors and furniture with inches of their droppings.

Other snaps taken of the brick-built dwelling reveal how the fixtures and fittings have been pulled from its walls.

In the living room, a cupboard has been placed up against the bay windows – with further pigeons pictured on a fridge in the kitchen.

A mound of building rubbish also fills up the back garden area.

Network Auctions, which has listed the property with a guide price of £12,000 to £15,000, says it requires a “complete refurbishment”.

Their description reads: “Facing Haig Road with rear access to the yard via Adrian Street, just back from the seafront and beach.

“The house requires a strip out and re-fit.”

“No viewings due to internal condition – the property has a pigeon infestation.”
