A compact three-bedroom detached new build on Hurworth Meadows, presented with contemporary fittings and energy-saving features. The Sage offers an open-plan kitchen/diner to the front and a rear lounge with bifold doors that extend living into a small private garden — an easy-to-manage outdoor space for first-time owners.
Practical incentives reduce upfront costs: £5,000 towards a deposit, £1,000 towards legal fees, flooring included and integrated fridge/freezer and dishwasher provided. Solar panels and an electric vehicle charging point help cut running costs; the home is rated EPC Band B and sold freehold with a modest estate management charge of around £110 + VAT pa.
The house is compact (approx. 612 sq ft) with well-proportioned but small rooms suited to a starter household or buy-to-let. The principal bedroom has a fitted wardrobe and en-suite; two further bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the first floor. The property is finished in neutral contemporary finishes requiring minimal immediate work.
Location and local services have trade-offs. The site lies in an area of significant deprivation and recorded higher-than-average crime, and broadband speeds are slow — important for home working. On the positive side, schools nearby have good Ofsted ratings and local amenities are within easy reach. Buyers should weigh the strong lower running costs against the neighbourhood context and compact floorplate.
