Summary - 14 Westerton Road, Leeholme DL14 8HE
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Well-priced family project with garage, long parking and village convenience.
• Dual-length gated driveway providing substantial off-street parking
• Single garage with rear access
• Pleasant countryside outlook from front elevation
• Three bedrooms, one family bathroom and separate W/C
• EPC rating D — potential energy improvements required
• Some dated interiors (staircase, wallpaper) needing modernisation
• Small rear gravelled yard; low-maintenance but limited garden space
• Area classed as deprived with above-average local crime statistics
Set on the village outskirts, this 1930s three-bedroom semi delivers generous reception rooms, a long gated driveway and a single garage. Bay windows and period features give the house character while the elevated position provides pleasant countryside views from the front rooms.
The layout is traditional: entrance hall, living room, dining room and kitchen to the ground floor, with three bedrooms and a family bathroom upstairs. The property has useful fitted storage and mains gas central heating, with double glazing of unknown install date. The enclosed rear yard is low maintenance and the front garden is lawned with established planting.
This home will suit a family or buyer seeking affordability and scope to add value. It needs updating in places — notably the staircase, some internal decor and likely kitchen/bathroom modernisation — so it’s well suited to purchasers looking for a renovation project rather than a move-in-ready property. EPC grade D and an older build mean buyers should factor energy and improvement costs.
Location benefits include quick access to Bishop Auckland (approx. 3 miles), nearby schools rated Good to Outstanding, the A689 for commuting and reliable broadband and mobile signal. Be aware the area is classed as deprived with above-average crime statistics; buyers should weigh location considerations alongside the property’s practical advantages.
