This compact one-bedroom flat in General Bucher Court offers an affordable entry into Bishop Auckland or a low-cost investment purchase. The flat is purpose-built, recently constructed (2022), and sits on the ground/low-rise level with a communal car park and off-street parking—practical for tenants or a single occupant.
Internally the layout is straightforward: entrance hall, kitchen, living room, double bedroom and a modern three-piece bathroom. The accommodation totals around 413 sq ft, with a generous living room and bedroom for the size. The long lease (114 years remaining) and very low council tax make ownership inexpensive to hold.
Buyers should note this is a small property with electric room heaters as the main heating source, which can be more costly than gas alternatives. The immediate area is classified as deprived with above-average crime statistics, and the communal grounds appear modest; this will affect rental demand and resale tone. EPC grade is not provided in the information supplied.
Priced at £25,000, the flat suits investors seeking a low-entry rental asset or a first-time buyer prioritising location and running costs over internal space. Its proximity to town centre amenities, schools and public transport is a clear strength for tenants and short-commute occupants.
