A stone-built semi-detached bungalow offering three bedrooms and immediate vacant possession — a clear value-add project in a desirable rural setting. The property forms part of a converted manor and retains character features such as exposed beams and high ceilings in places, with a compact living room and a generous kitchen that lends itself to modernisation.
Set on a very large plot with off-street parking and a low-maintenance gravelled frontage, this freehold home suits someone seeking countryside peace close to Riding Mill amenities. Broadband and mobile signal are reported strong, and nearby schools receive good to outstanding ratings, making the location practical as well as picturesque.
The bungalow requires renovation throughout: fixtures and finishes are dated, walls are solid brick with assumed no insulation, and the EPC is currently D. Buyers should expect refurbishment costs to upgrade heating, kitchen and bathroom, and to consider insulation improvements to meet modern standards. A mining search is recommended because of the region’s mining heritage.
This property is priced to reflect its condition and clear potential. It will appeal to buyers looking to add value — particularly downsizers wanting single-storey living with scope to personalise — or investors planning a refurbishment. Note: crime levels are above average locally and all services/appliances are untested and should be verified by survey and solicitor.
