This newly refurbished three-bedroom mid-terraced home in Coundon offers a move-in-ready layout suited to first-time buyers or investors. The property benefits from modern neutral decor, fresh flooring and carpets, and a stylish fitted kitchen with integrated oven and hob. Two versatile reception rooms create practical living and dining or home-working space, while the bay-fronted reception adds period character.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing and a very low council tax band A. The house sits within walking distance of Bishop Auckland town centre, local schools (including King James I Academy and St John’s Catholic School), and Bishop Auckland railway station — useful for commuters and rental demand.
There are some important local factors to note. The area records above-average crime levels and is classified as very deprived, which will affect resale and lettings in some buyer segments. Outdoor space is limited to a small, low-maintenance rear yard. The property has one bathroom and is an average-sized home (approx. 1,055 sq ft) in a Victorian mid-terrace shell that retains period features but may offer limited scope for substantial extension.
Overall, this is a competitively priced, ready-to-live-in house that offers immediate occupancy or straightforward rental income potential. Buyers should balance the strong value and recent refurbishment against local area challenges and the modest outdoor amenity when deciding to view.
