Summary - Rutland Avenue Rutland Avenue Rutland Avenue, Silksworth, Sunderland SR3 1JH
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Affordable two‑bed with large gardens and strong improvement potential.
No upper chain; available with immediate vacant possession
A two‑bedroom semi‑detached house set on a generous corner plot in popular Silksworth, offered with immediate vacant possession and no upper chain. The property has a traditional bay‑fronted lounge, kitchen/diner, downstairs WC and two well‑proportioned first‑floor bedrooms, making it a straightforward home for first‑time buyers or a buy‑to‑let purchase.
Outside there is off‑street parking via a driveway, useful outbuildings/wash house and extensive gardens to the front, side and rear — rare for this price bracket and offering scope to extend (subject to planning) or create low‑maintenance landscaping. The build dates from the mid‑20th century and benefits from double glazing and gas central heating.
The house will suit someone seeking value and potential rather than a move‑in perfect finish. The property shows signs of age and would benefit from updating and modernisation throughout to maximise comfort and resale value. Buyers should allow budget for internal refurbishment and minor external redecoration.
Practical considerations: the local area is classified as deprived with above‑average crime, though transport links, schools and local amenities are close by. Council Tax is low (Band A) and the tenure is freehold, which will appeal to cost‑conscious buyers or investors evaluating rental yield and running costs.
