This three-bedroom semi-detached house on Reeth Place offers an affordable entry into homeownership in Newton Aycliffe. The property is freehold, equipped with gas central heating to radiators and uPVC double glazing, and includes practical features such as a ground-floor WC and built-in storage — a sensible layout for a first-time buyer or young family.
Internally the rooms are of average size across approximately 947 sq ft, with a living room, kitchen/dining space and a family bathroom upstairs. Externally there is a small, enclosed lawned garden with low-maintenance fencing and a paved path, suitable for outdoor seating, children’s play or basic gardening.
Practical considerations are clear: the house is in an area with high crime and very high deprivation indicators, and broadband speeds are slow. The property shows mid-20th-century finishes and will benefit from general maintenance and selective updating to bring it up to modern standards. Council Tax is Band A, keeping running costs low.
Located close to local bus routes, shops and several primary and secondary schools (including some rated Good), this home suits someone wanting a low-cost starter property with scope to improve. Buyers should factor in planned repairs, possible cosmetic refurbishment and the local area challenges when viewing.
