A traditionally built three-bedroom mid-terrace offering strong purchase potential at a very low entry price. The property is chain free and benefit from gas central heating and double glazing (install date unknown), making it ready for targeted improvements. At about 880 sq ft the accommodation is an average-sized layout with a spacious living room, fitted kitchen and a rear yard providing secure, low-maintenance outdoor space.
This house is best suited to buyers prepared to carry out modernisation works. The solid brick walls are likely uninsulated and the interior shows dated fixtures and finishes. Renovation could unlock value for an investor or a first-time buyer able to DIY, but expect costs to upgrade decoration, services and insulation to modern standards.
Location strengths include good local schools, frequent bus links and quick access to the A19 for commuting. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and nearby green spaces such as Castle Eden Dene add local appeal. However, the immediate area scores high on deprivation and crime statistics, which will affect resale and rental demand and should be weighed into any purchase plan.
In short: a low-priced, chain-free Victorian terrace with clear scope for renovation and uplift. Suitable for buyers seeking an affordable project or an investor targeting a rebuild/refurbish opportunity — but be realistic about local social challenges and refurbishment costs before committing.
