Rubbish-filled house listed for £100k at auction
- Published
A semi-detached house filled with rubbish has been put up for auction with a guide price of £100,000.
Pictures of the council-owned property in Riddlesden, near Keighley show several rooms piled high with waste.
A listing for the house, in Scott Lane West, suggests while it contains "a large amount of rubbish” once renovated the property would make "a pleasant family home".
The three-bed house is being sold via an online auction by Pugh Properties.
According to the Local Democracy Reporting Service, Bradford Council purchased the estate via a compulsory purchase order last year.
The authority has purchased numerous properties in recent years to sell at auction in an attempt to bring long empty, privately owned houses back into use.
Bradford Council has been contacted to ask why it purchased the house, but is yet to respond.
