An outlandish ‘Jungle House’ in Wirral which is hidden under a blanket of vines and looks like something out of the film Jumanji is set to go under the hammer with a guide price of just £45,000.
Auctioneers say the two-bedroom, one bath, property on Darleydale Drive in Eastham ‘has a lot of potential’ but potential buyers will need to machete their way through deep layers of vegetation to see it.
It looks like nature is trying to reclaim the Earth in some sort of apocalyptic Hollywood movie with the front of the house and roof carpeted in vines, creepers and weeds’ The interior appears to have escaped the invasion of foliage but still requires wholesale refurbishment.
However, the property could prove to be a shrewd investment for the brave soul willing to take it on. Other fully refurbished properties in the area have sold for as much as £200,000. The renovated terrace house could also yield a rental of £950 per month.
This house will go up for auction on June 26 at 3pm. The Auction Company strongly recommends interested parties arrange an in-person viewing, by appointment only. Call 03332072707 or go online.
