This well-presented mid-terrace on Osbourne Gardens offers straightforward family living in Crook town centre. The house provides two main bedrooms plus a smaller third room suited to a nursery or home office, two bathrooms (ground-floor bathroom and first-floor shower room) and two reception rooms arranged for everyday family use. Modern decor, UPVC double glazing and gas central heating mean the property is ready to occupy with minimal immediate work.
Externally the home sits on a small, low-maintenance front garden and an enclosed rear yard — easy to manage for busy households. At around 980 sq ft and constructed c.1900–1929, the house keeps period features such as decorative fireplaces while offering updated fittings in the kitchen and bathrooms. The loft is partially boarded for storage and the property is freehold, with very low local council tax (Band A).
Practical considerations: the EPC is Grade D and the original cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, so better energy performance can be unlocked with insulation and further improvements. The property lies in a historically mined area — a mining search is recommended during conveyancing. The plot is small and the house sits in an area with higher deprivation indices, which may influence resale appetite for some buyers.
Overall, this is a ready-made, well-kept family home in a convenient town-centre position. It suits buyers wanting immediate occupation with scope to improve energy efficiency and personalise cosmetic finishes, or investors seeking a straightforward mid-terrace in a rental market supported by local amenities and good broadband/mobiles coverage.
