Affordable starter home close to town amenities and transport.
- Two bedrooms over two levels, modest living space
This well-presented two-bedroom mid-terrace sits within walking distance of Stanley town centre and offers straightforward starter-home living or a sensible rental opportunity. The living room’s high ceilings and original fireplace give character, while a breakfasting kitchen and generous rear yard add practical everyday space.
Recent improvements help reduce short-term costs: a gas combi boiler was fitted in 2024 and most windows are uPVC with plantation shutters. The property is freehold with low Council Tax (Band A) and an EPC D (64), making running costs inexpensive compared with larger homes.
Buyers should note the wider area is economically challenged and recorded local crime levels are high, which may affect long-term capital growth and letting demand. The house is of solid brick construction (typical early 20th century) and likely lacks wall insulation — further thermal improvements would improve comfort and efficiency.
Externally there’s a modest forecourt and a generous rear yard with a large metal shed and twin gates to the rear lane; removing or relocating the shed could create off-street parking. Overall this property suits first-time buyers seeking an affordable urban home or investors after a low-entry terrace with immediate rental potential.
