Summary - 8 CAMBRIDGE TERRACE BOWBURN DURHAM DH6 5AY
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Affordable starter home near schools and A1(M) access.
Two double bedrooms across two floors
A compact two-bedroom mid-terrace in Bowburn offering an affordable entry into homeownership or a straightforward buy-to-let. The house benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing and a modern combi boiler — practical essentials already in place. It is offered on an onward chain, which can speed completion for a motivated buyer.
The accommodation is arranged over two floors with a bright bay-fronted lounge, an open-plan kitchen/diner and a recently refitted first-floor bathroom. Outside there is a small front garden and an enclosed rear yard with a storage shed. The property sits within walking distance of local shops and the well-regarded Bowburn Primary School, with Durham city centre only a short drive away via the A1(M).
There are clear renovation opportunities to personalise the home: internal modernisation, improved insulation and cosmetic updating would add both comfort and value. Practical drawbacks to note are the property’s small overall size, an EPC rating of D, assumed lack of cavity wall insulation and a local crime level above average. Council tax and freehold tenure are positive low-running-cost aspects to consider.
This house will suit a first-time buyer or investor ready to carry out modest works to make the most of the layout and location. Its quick road links and nearby schools make it a sensible base for commuters or a rental proposition, while the onward chain offers potential for a faster move.
