Set on Barrington Crescent, this three-bedroom semi offers affordable space and genuine potential for a first home or buy-to-let. The house is chain free and sold freehold, with gas central heating, double glazing and a larger-than-average rear garden with deck — useful for families or tenants seeking outdoor space. At around 1,152 sq ft the layout includes a spacious reception room, separate dining area, and two bathrooms, giving practical living space straight away.
Important practical points: the property is a non-standard, system-built construction with external insulation. That can restrict some high-street mortgage options and means a specialist survey is recommended before purchase. The internal finish is tidy but the house would benefit from updating to unlock full value — an opportunity for a cost-conscious buyer or investor prepared to refurbish.
Location strengths include quick access to local schools (several rated Good or Outstanding) and fast broadband and mobile signal. The plot is decent with a low-maintenance front and a large rear garden; the size and orientation suit family use, straightforward extensions (subject to checks), or rental layouts.
Be candid about the neighbourhood: the area experiences higher crime and significant economic deprivation, which can affect resale values and lettings in parts. For buyers seeking an inexpensive entry into Middlesbrough property, this house is a practical, affordable canvas — chain free and ready for viewing, but best bought with informed mortgage and survey advice.
