Summary - 31 WILSON AVENUE COUNDON BISHOP AUCKLAND DL14 8LW
3 bed 1 bath Bungalow
Single-storey living with garage, garden and easy town access.
Detached single-storey bungalow with garage and driveway parking
This detached, single-storey home sits at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac and offers straightforward, low-rise living with a garage and driveway. The layout includes an L-shaped living/dining room, three bedrooms (two with fitted wardrobes), a kitchen with space for freestanding appliances and a wet-room style shower. UPVC double glazing and gas central heating are already in place.
The property is sold freehold and with no onward chain at an online auction on 30 October 2025. Prospective buyers should note the auction process: bidding opens 24 hours prior, exchange can occur on signature with deposit, completion is typically within 28 days, and a buyer administration fee applies. Covenants from 1972 and rights/easements noted on the title are recorded; the home lies in a historical mining area and the vendor recommends a chartered surveyor for confirmation of condition.
There is clear potential for cosmetic improvement — the kitchen dates from the 1980s and the interior is generally dated — making this suitable for buyers who want to personalise a manageable property. The rear is paved for low maintenance and the front is lawned, giving a decent plot size without extensive upkeep.
Location is practical for everyday needs: shops, a primary school and GP services are nearby, and Bishop Auckland town centre is a short drive via the A688. Be aware the wider area is described as very deprived and local crime levels are above average; factor this into mortgage, insurance or rental considerations.
