A traditional two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow set in a desirable East View location, offered with immediate vacant possession and no onward chain. The house sits on a decent plot with generous front and rear lawns, a detached brick garage and enjoys views over playing fields to the rear — useful outdoor space for families or those seeking a quiet garden.
Internally the layout is simple and practical: hallway, lounge, kitchen-diner, two double bedrooms, bathroom and a side porch. The property benefits from mains gas central heating (combi boiler) and double glazing, although the glazing dates from before 2002 and much of the interior is dated and will need modernisation to suit contemporary tastes.
Practical advantages include freehold tenure, a low council tax band, good mobile signal and fast broadband potential, plus regular bus links and road access to Durham and Newcastle. Local amenities, several good primary schools and Consett Academy are within walking distance, and the rear aspect onto playing fields will appeal to families — but it may also bring occasional noise.
Material considerations: the area is within a Coal Mining Reporting Area so further searches are advisable; crime is reported above average locally. A buyer seeking a tidy, ready-to-move-in home may find updating required, while investors or renovators will see clear scope to add value with kitchen, bathroom and cosmetic improvements.
