A pretty terraced stone cottage with two-bedrooms, in Ryde's Nelson Place, will be sold as a doer-upper via an online auction on February 8.

There is guide price of at least £120,000 and the new owner will need to be prepared to put in some work - but that also means an exciting opportunity to make your mark on the seaside home.

This mid-terrace is described by agent Clive Emson Auctioneers as being in an attractive, residential location, a short distance Ryde town.
