A roomy three-bedroom end terrace offering practical living space and low running costs. The ground floor provides an entrance hall with generous storage, a comfortable lounge and a good-sized dining kitchen, while the first floor houses three well-proportioned bedrooms and a single family bathroom. A gas combi boiler and double glazing (install date unknown) help keep heating efficient.
Outside, the property has an enclosed rear garden with a large brick-built storage facility and an open-plan lawned front garden. The small plot is easy to maintain and suits buyers who want manageable outdoor space rather than extensive grounds. The house was built in the late 1960s–1970s with filled cavity walls and standard ceiling heights.
The location is convenient for Ferryhill town centre amenities (about one mile) and several well-rated primary and secondary schools nearby, including an Outstanding primary. The neighbourhood is classified as having hard-pressed rented terraces and higher deprivation, so buyers should weigh local socioeconomic factors alongside the value on offer.
This freehold home suits first-time buyers looking for straightforward, affordable accommodation or investors seeking a manageable rental property. The property appears well presented but offers scope for cosmetic updating to personalise interiors and add value. Early viewing is recommended to assess condition and potential.
