A straightforward three-bedroom semi-detached home offered chain-free on Gudmunsen Avenue — well suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking accessible entry to Bishop Auckland. The house sits on a decent plot with a generous rear garden, block-paved front parking and practical living space including a kitchen-diner and living room with a log burner.
The property is solidly constructed (post‑war cavity walls) and benefits from mains gas central heating, UPVC double glazing and recent soffit and fascia replacements. At around 812 sq ft the accommodation is compact but practical: entrance hall, living room, kitchen-diner with patio doors, three bedrooms and a single family bathroom. Council tax band A keeps running costs low.
Buyers should note the material drawbacks honestly: the area records higher-than-average crime and very high local deprivation, and the property lies within a selective licence area. Parking is on a block-paved front area but the kerb has not been lowered. Covenants, rights and easements apply and a mining history affects the locality; a chartered surveyor is recommended before purchase.
Overall this is a value-driven purchase for those prioritising outdoor space, low entry price and no onward chain. It suits buyers who accept a compact layout and want a straightforward home to improve, rent out, or use as a starter house close to local schools and town centre amenities.
