Set on a quiet stretch of Manor Road, this two-bedroom end-terraced bungalow is a compact, single-storey home offered with no upper chain and immediate freehold ownership. The interior is practical — a lounge with a traditional fireplace, fitted kitchen, separate utility room and a contemporary shower room — making it ready to occupy while offering scope to personalise. Gas combi central heating and uPVC double glazing provide everyday comfort, and Council Tax band A keeps running costs low.
The small, low-maintenance front garden and paved rear yard suit buyers wanting outdoor space without heavy gardening. At 566 sq ft the accommodation is modest and best suited to first-time buyers, those downsizing, or buy-to-let investors seeking a straightforward, lower-entry purchase in DH9. Broadband options include superfast speeds, which helps for working from home or streaming.
Important considerations: the property sits in a wider area classed as deprived with very high local crime levels, and the stone-built walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation. The EPC is rated D (62), so owners should expect some energy costs and the potential to improve efficiency. The plot is small and internal room sizes are compact; those wanting generous living space or extensive outside grounds should look elsewhere.
Overall this bungalow presents a low-price opportunity to move straight in and improve over time. It will particularly appeal to buyers seeking a manageable, single-storey home or investors wanting a rentable, low-maintenance asset with scope for modest refurbishment and value uplift.
