This recently renovated three-bedroom semi-detached home on Thirkeld Place offers comfortable family living with practical, modern finishes. The property benefits from a full re-wire, a contemporary fitted kitchen, a stylish family bathroom and a separate utility room — all helping to minimise immediate maintenance and move-in costs.
Outside, the house sits on an average-sized plot with a multi-tiered, low-maintenance rear garden, a driveway for multiple cars and an integrated garage. Its position close to Penshaw Monument and Herrington Country Park gives easy access to countryside walks while local bus routes and nearby A1231/A1(M)/A19 links support commuting. Fast broadband and average mobile signal make the home suitable for remote working or family use.
The leasehold is extended to 150 years with a low ground rent (£10 p.a. stated), which provides long-term security but means buyers should check final lease documentation and any extension confirmation. The house was built 1967–75 and has cavity walls with no confirmed insulation; buyers wanting maximum energy efficiency may wish to investigate insulation upgrades. Local crime levels are average and council tax is low (Band B).
Overall this is a straightforward, modernised family home in a popular and affluent area. It suits buyers wanting a finished property with good transport links, outdoor space and a garage, while those prioritising highest thermal efficiency or a freehold title should factor in potential additional work or legal checks.
