Summary - SUNSET, BISHOP AUCKLAND, LOW ETHERLEY DL14 0EX
2 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Characterful two-bed cottage with parking and countryside views, ideal first home..
Chain free two-bedroom semi-detached cottage
A stone-built, chain-free two-bedroom semi with genuine period character and surprisingly practical features for first-time buyers. The living room sits around an inglenook-style fireplace with a recently installed log-burning stove and a feature window that frames pleasant countryside views. The kitchen is well-appointed with granite worktops and integrated appliances, including a Rangemaster cooker, dishwasher, fridge-freezer and washing machine.
Both bedrooms are doubles; the front bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and the same outlook over the fields. A versatile side room provides scope as a utility, workshop or playroom. Outside, a block-paved driveway offers off-street parking (uncommon for this type) and a low-maintenance front garden sits to the front. Council tax band is low and the property is freehold.
Notable practical points and considerations: the house is older (constructed before 1900) with stone walls that are assumed to be uninsulated, and double glazing install dates are unknown. There is a right of access to the rear and a shared alleyway arrangement with the neighbouring property. Outline planning permission for up to four dwellings on the field opposite may change the view and setting. Buyers should commission a chartered survey to check construction, services and insulation details.
This home suits someone seeking a characterful, affordable first purchase in a semi-rural spot, offering immediate move-in potential with further scope to improve energy performance and personalise the property.
