Compact starter home close to transport, university and local shops.
Freehold, chain-free two-bedroom terraced cottage
A two-bedroom terraced cottage in Millfield offered freehold and chain-free — a compact, affordable purchase near Sunderland University and local transport links. The property’s modest footprint (57 sqm / 613 sqft) and period brick exterior give a practical base for cosmetic updating or a straightforward rental let. Fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and mains gas heating help the home feel ready for everyday use.
The house has scope for improvement: solid brick walls with no known insulation, an EPC rating of D and likely cosmetic and mechanical updates needed. The small rear yard limits outdoor space but keeps maintenance low. Council Tax Band A keeps running costs unusually cheap for the area.
This will suit a first-time buyer seeking an entry-level home or an investor after an affordable buy-to-let close to university accommodation and public transport. Be aware the local area scores as deprived with higher crime levels, which may affect long-term capital growth and lettability of higher-rent tenants.
