A two-bedroom terraced house on a modern estate in Stanley offering an affordable freehold starter home with garden and off-street parking. The property has a practical layout: ground-floor lounge with dual patio doors, kitchen, utility WC, and two double bedrooms with a family bathroom upstairs. Built in the early 1990s with double glazing and gas central heating, the basic fabric is sound and suited to sensible updating.
This home is sold requiring renovation and redecoration; cosmetic and possible minor system work will be needed to bring it to a contemporary standard. The enclosed rear garden is low maintenance and the front provides two parking spaces — useful for families or those with more than one vehicle. Broadband is fast and mobile signal excellent, supporting home working and streaming.
Buyers should note the surrounding area is very deprived with high local crime rates and an economically stretched population. Schools nearby include several rated Good, though some secondary options have lower ratings. The property’s low asking price and freehold tenure will appeal to first-time buyers or investors prepared to refurbish and manage local rental demand.
