The property was auctioned off in November 2021, where the bidding started at £110,000 ($A230,000).
Despite the rubbish that had accumulated throughout the property, it received offers in £5,000 ($A10,400) increments from buyers.
A proxy bid finally brought the auction to £145,000 ($A303,000).
Following its makeover, the property is back on the market for just over double the price.
The current owner has turned the home into an ample living space with a large corner garden.
There is also a large loft area above bedrooms two and three, which could be converted into a further two rooms with the necessary planning permissions.
As the property description states: 'Upon entering, you are greeted by a bright and airy open-plan lounge/diner, perfect for entertaining or relaxing with the family.
'The newly fitted kitchen/breakfast room is a true highlight, boasting contemporary units and ample space for culinary creations.'
The property has also been given a new roof, plumbing, gas central heating and a complete rewiring.
On top of that, doors and architraves, skirting and some floors have been sanded back to their original wood.
It is due to go on the market via Purplebricks after once being dubbed 'Britain's most cluttered house'.

‘Tell the truth': Cruz Beckham speaks out with cryptic message amid family feud
David Beckham's youngest son has spoken out and left the most telling sign yet of the feud that's reportedly tearing the family apart at the seams. Tensions between Brooklyn Beckham and his wife, Nicola Peltz, and Brooklyn's parents have been ongoing since their wedding in 2022. Things have come to a head in recent months, with Brooklyn and Nicola failing to attend his father's 50th birthday celebrations, and not being seen with the family in months. Now, Brooklyn's youngest brother, Cruz, has appeared to urge one of the clan to 'tell the truth' in a telling post on Instagram which he shared publicly. Written on top of a blurry picture that appeared to be his forehead and hair was: 'It takes 43 muscles in your face to frown, and 17 to smile. Be kind and tell the truth.' Sadly for David and Victoria, the bitter feud is showing no sign of coming to an end, with Brooklyn and Nicola flying into London earlier this week for work. Despite being just miles from his family home, the couple reportedly neglected to tell them they were even in the country at the time. Meanwhile, Nicola and Brooklyn's 2022 Florida nuptials were overshadowed by rampant rumours the bride was feuding with Victoria over her and Brooklyn's first dance, her wedding dress and more. Brooklyn denied the rumoured rift in a Variety interview, claiming 'everyone gets along, which is good.' Peltz, similarly, insisted there was 'not a feud' that same year while pointing out that 'no family is perfect.' The young couple has not been pictured with Brooklyn's parents or siblings since Christmas. 'In some ways, this is no surprise, but I guess no one could believe they would actually snub David's 50th when there were so many events they could have gone to, or ways to spend time with the family … their behaviour has been appalling,' the source said. Brooklyn failed to turn up for any of his father's festivities, which culminated in a star-studded party in London on Saturday night with guests including Tom Cruise. 'David and Victoria always turn up for Brooklyn and Nicola,' the source told Page Six, 'Whether it's for the launch of his hot sauce brand or her movie premiere. This is just very sad.' 'Brooklyn's family adores him and will always be there for him. They just can't deal with this nonsense anymore,' the source said. 'David and Victoria just want Brooklyn to remember who he is because this behaviour isn't him and isn't how he was raised.'

‘This is a joke right?' Boss goes viral for trying to cancel worker's annual leave
A boss is going viral for asking a worker to cancel their annual leave in the middle of their holiday. Yes seriously. UK Workplace expert Ben Askins, who has found his sweet spot online by sharing anonymous but wild text message exchanges between bosses and employees, has found yet another baffling exchange. There's also no warm-up with this exchange. The boss doesn't even with pleasantries; instead they fire off a text a text explaining that they are 'sorry' to do this but there's been a 'mistake' and they're going to have to can their worker's annual leave. 'I am going to have to cancel the second half of your annual leave this week. You'll need to be in the office Thursday and Friday,' the boss texted. 'Huh? But I'm already in Mexico,' the worker replied. The boss then completely ignored the fact they were in a foreign country and continued to demand the worker return. 'Sorry but like I said there's nothing I can do. I am going to update the system now saying you'll be in,' the boss fired back. The worker desperately tried to apply some logic to the situation and points out again they're in a different country. 'I won't be in. I'm literally in another country there's no scenario where I can make it back in time,' the worker claims. The boss seemingly ignores the message and tells the worker, 'you will have to' move your flights around before claiming they found a return flight for Wednesday evening. 'This is a joke right? You aren't seriously asking me this?' The worker texted back. The boss confirmed it was not a joke. 'I am not asking. I am telling you the situation. I appreciate it isn't ideal, but too many people are off Thursday and Friday, so you're just going to have to be back here by then,' the boss demands. The employee refused to give in and informed the boss that he could 'do what they want,' but they wouldn't be returning to work early. 'Even if I wanted to come back in time, which I can't, I wouldn't. If you push this! I will be reporting you,' the worker said. Mr Askins immediately slammed the boss and pointed out there's no excuse to make such outrageous demands. 'Oh come on. You must know you're not allowed to do that,' he said. 'He has obviously made a mistake. He has got the roster wrong. That sounds like a problem for sure, but it certainly isn't the poor employees' in Mexico's problem.' The workplace added that annual leave is a 'right, not a privilege,' and no boss can interfere with it just because it is convenient for them. Online people were shocked. 'This first mistake is replying,' one noted. 'I wouldn't even respond,' another said. 'I'd report it anyway. The boss has to learn,' someone else said. 'I would report him. He ruined her holidays. I would get a new holiday for the distress he caused,' another said. 'I actually genuinely hate bosses and managers who think they own you simply because you work for a company! It's sickening,' someone else shared.

Awkward moment Richard Wilkins is mistaken for David Hasselhoff during live cross from London
Richard Wilkins had an awkward exchange with a fan while trying to do a live cross to the Today show from the UK. The seasoned entertainment editor was in London this past week for the premiere of Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning when a fan named mistook him for Baywatch star David Hasselhoff. 'Best feeling in the world meeting your idol,' the fan named Noah Knight wrote on Instagram as he shared a video of the encounter. In the clip, Noah could be heard fanboying over 'David Hasselhoff' as he continuously yelled the actor's name in Wilkins' direction. Today producers then stepped in, asking the fan to stop heckling their star reporter. 'Sorry guys, we're trying to work here,' one producer said, with another adding, 'That's very disrespectful.' Wilkins also urged the fan to quiet down so they could film. 'Will you give us a break for five minutes, please?' he asked. After the awkward exchange, the 70-year-old reporter took to Instagram to comment on the video, which has since gained some traction on social media. 'Don't hassle the Hoff!!' Wilkins joked in the comments section, as his Today Extra colleague David Campbell teased, 'Loved it when you were on Knight Rider.' Showing he was a good port about it all, Wilkins 'liked' the video and also shared the clip on his Instagram page. 'Midnight live crosses can be challenging! ... post red carpet Global premiere of Mission: Impossible The Final Reckoning,' he wrote in the caption. Wilkins is actually good friends with the Baywatch star. During the actor's visit to Australia in 2019 to film a commercial for ANZ, they sat down for lunch at the Today star's Sydney home. 'It's amazing, actually, to be back in Sydney because I have such a history here,' Hasselhoff told Wilkins in footage captured by the Today cameras. 'I was one of the only persons to do a wave runner ride underneath the Sydney Harbour Bridge when we did Baywatch here.' That wasn't his only encounter with the iconic landmark, revealing that he also proposed to wife Hayley Roberts there after doing the Bridge Climb in 2012, which was just one of his many proposals to Roberts. 'We didn't really think about getting married,' said the actor. 'I proposed to her on the Sydney Harbour Bridge at the top, I proposed to her with a charging elephant, I proposed to her at Cape Town, and then I really proposed to her (during a beach picnic in Malibu) because it was the first time I could actually get down on my knees and say, 'I love you. Will you marry me?' from the heart. And when she said 'Yes' – because she's 27 years younger – I was blown away.' The pair were married in Puglia, Italy, in July 2018. Hasselhoff was previously married to Baywatch co-star Pamela Bach from 1989 to 2006. Bach, who shared two daughters with the actor, sadly died in March this year.
