Summary - 9, Barley Close, HOUGHTON LE SPRING DH4 5AE
3 bed 3 bath Detached
Spacious garden and double driveway ideal for family living and commuting.
Detached three-bedroom house with en-suite and downstairs WC
A well-presented three-bedroom detached house arranged over two floors, designed for everyday family life. The ground floor offers a cosy living room, practical downstairs WC and a generous kitchen-diner with French doors that open onto a large west-facing garden — ideal for children and outdoor entertaining. Off-street parking for two cars leads to a garage currently used as a home gym.
Upstairs there are three bedrooms, including a main bedroom with en-suite, plus a modern family bathroom. At 718 sq ft the layout is compact but efficiently arranged; the property will suit families wanting manageable space with good outdoor room rather than expansive interiors. Heating is gas-fired via boiler and radiators and utilities are mains-connected.
Buyers should note a few material points: the property sits within a coal mining reporting area so further searches are recommended; there are covenants recorded on the title; and the wider neighbourhood records higher deprivation indices. A chartered survey is advised to confirm building condition and any specific safety checks. Council Tax is Band C and the tenure is freehold.
For families who prioritise outdoor space, parking and straightforward commuting, this house offers immediate livability and potential to personalise. Local primary and secondary schools are rated Good, and the location provides easy access to Sunderland, Durham, Washington and the A1 motorway.
