A newly refurbished two-bedroom semi-detached home in Stanley offered at an accessible price. The property provides practical living across 676 sq ft with two double bedrooms, a modern bathroom and a fitted kitchen/diner that opens to a sizeable rear garden — a good starter home or buy-to-let prospect.
The interior is presented with neutral finishes, laminate flooring and new carpeting, ready for immediate occupation. Practical highlights include off-street parking, mains gas central heating and double glazing (installed before 2002). Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent.
Buyers should note material drawbacks plainly: the area scores high for crime and is classified as very deprived, which will affect long-term resale and rental desirability. External inspection notes indicate garden maintenance is required and the roof should be inspected — these could need further expenditure. The plot is small and the property is a mid-20th-century build with filled cavity walls.
At £95,000 and freehold tenure, this home suits first-time buyers seeking an affordable, move-in-ready property in a convenient location close to schools and transport links, or investors targeting rental income. Factor in local area challenges and potential exterior maintenance when assessing value and future plans.
