This end-terraced two-bedroom house on West Road, Crook, is a compact, freehold property suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking an affordable entry into the area. The layout offers an open-plan lounge and kitchen/diner, two first-floor bedrooms and a single bathroom — practical living in a modest footprint. Chain-free sale and very low council tax (Band A) improve immediate affordability.
The house retains period character externally with a stone façade and internal features such as a traditional fireplace. Practical positives include UPVC double glazing, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, off-street parking for one vehicle via gated side access, and ultrafast broadband availability — useful for home working or renters.
Notable maintenance and location considerations are presented plainly. The property is older (built c.1900–1929) with assumed solid brick walls and likely little or no wall insulation; internal updating is needed in places. EPC D indicates average energy performance. The area is classified as very deprived with above-average crime and some surface water flood risk; a mining-search is recommended because of historical mining in the locality. These factors may affect insurance, running costs and investment yield.
Overall this property offers a low-cost, flexible opportunity for someone prepared to modernise and manage location-related risks. It suits a buyer wanting immediate occupancy or an investor targeting local rental demand, provided they allow for renovation and carry out the recommended searches and flood/insurance checks.
