A well-proportioned three-bedroom detached house situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, offering straightforward family living with practical extras. The property benefits from a large rear extension that creates generous ground-floor living, a contemporary kitchen/diner with bi-fold doors, and an impressive four-piece family bathroom and ensuite to the principal bedroom. The rear garden is private and not overlooked, while a blocked-paved driveway and integral garage provide secure parking.
Built around the turn of the century, the home has mains gas central heating, double glazing and cavity wall construction that together give solid thermal performance. Broadband speeds are fast and there is no recorded flood risk, which supports both family life and home working. Nearby green spaces — Hetton Lyons Country Park and Rainton Meadows — plus good primary schools add day-to-day convenience.
Buyers should note practical points: the plot is relatively small and the area scores as more deprived than average, which may affect long-term resale in some markets. One local secondary school is rated ‘requires improvement’. Overall this property suits buyers seeking a comfortable, move-in-ready family home with sensible running costs and scope to add value through cosmetic updating.
