Set on a quiet square in Shotton Colliery, this three-bedroom semi-detached house offers a straightforward, chain-free move for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The property is freehold and provides practical living space across two floors with an average-sized footprint and a single family bathroom. Good broadband and excellent mobile signal support home working and connected tenants.
Outside there are front and rear gardens that are easy to maintain and provide room for children, pets or simple landscaping. The location benefits from several well-rated local primary and secondary schools and direct routes to the A19 for commuting. The current estimate of rental income adds another clear ownership option for investors.
Buyers should note material considerations: the house was built in the late 1960s–1970s with cavity walls that likely lack insulation, and the glazing date is unknown. The area has high crime levels and is classed as very deprived, which may affect resale and tenant demand. The accommodation is functional but may benefit from energy-efficiency upgrades and cosmetic modernisation to unlock full value.
