Set over four floors, this end back-to-back terrace in Stacksteads is a practical starter home or buy-to-let with genuine upside. The bright, high-ceilinged lounge looks over neighbouring woodland, and a south-facing front garden brings afternoon sun. A modern boiler and double glazing (install dates unknown) mean the heating is up to date.
The house has useful extra space: a deep cellar and a large attic room with twin skylights. The attic requires works to make it habitable but offers clear potential for a third bedroom or home office, subject to permissions. Internal rooms are largely traditional Victorian proportions, with original features such as stained-glass in the vestibule and a fireplace in the lounge.
Practical facts are straightforward: the property is leasehold, constructed before 1900 with sandstone/limestone walls likely uninsulated, and council tax is Band A. There’s no reported flood risk and mobile and broadband connections are strong, making the location rural yet well connected to amenities, schools and local trails.
This home suits first-time buyers who want a characterful, affordable property with scope to add value through sympathetic upgrading, or investors looking for a low-entry purchase in a semi-rural area. Major works are not flagged, but attic completion and improving wall insulation would be the main projects to consider.
