A chain-free, two-bedroom Edwardian mid-terrace in Crook offering solid starter-home credentials and simple rental potential. The house keeps original character through bay windows and fireplaces, while practical rooms and a rear enclosed yard deliver everyday usability. Broadband and mobile coverage are strong, supporting home working and tenants who need fast connections.
Internally, the layout is straightforward: a bay-front lounge, a separate dining room, kitchen and a first-floor bathroom with corner bath and separate shower. Rooms are roomy for the type but some decor and finishes are dated; the property will benefit from cosmetic updating and a focused refresh to maximise value. EPC grade D highlights scope to improve energy efficiency.
The plot is small and there’s no notable external space beyond the enclosed yard and modest front garden. The area is classed as deprived with local social-renting demographics and historical mining in the locality — a mining search is recommended during conveyancing. Council Tax sits at Band A, keeping running costs low.
This home suits first-time buyers seeking an affordable, move-in-soon house with straightforward improvement potential, or landlords looking for a low-entry investment in a town-centre location. Buyers should factor in planned cosmetic works, energy-efficiency upgrades and the advised mining searches when assessing cost and timescales.
