Chain-free 3-bed with parking, low running costs and easy-care garden — ideal for families..
Chain-free three-bedroom semi-detached home
This three-bedroom semi-detached home in DN17 is offered chain-free and ready for a buyer wanting practical family space. The layout includes a separate living room, a long lounge/diner, fitted kitchen with adjoining utility and a downstairs W/C — sensible rooms for everyday family life and flexible entertaining. Off-street parking, a front lawn and a low-maintenance astroturfed rear garden make outdoor upkeep straightforward.
The property was built in the post‑war period and benefits from double glazing and a mains gas boiler with radiators. An EPC rating of C and very low council tax band A keep running costs reasonable. Two of the three bedrooms have built-in wardrobes and the house totals around 1,131 sq ft, giving comfortable room sizes throughout.
Buyers should note the house sits in a very deprived area with above-average crime levels — important for consideration of resale and insurance. The exterior and some internal finishes are dated and the construction is system-built with external insulation, so buyers who want cosmetic modernisation or longer-term structural reassurance should budget for updates. Transport links and local schools are strong positives for families.
Overall this is a practical, affordable family home or starter purchase with clear potential to improve and personalise. Chain-free sale, good transport access and nearby amenities make it well suited to first-time buyers or young families prepared to carry out cosmetic works.
