Summary - 13 HALL STREET BARNARD CASTLE DL12 8JB
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Central Barnard Castle home with parking and renovation potential.
Spacious lounge with inglenook fireplace and gas stove
Set on Hall Street in the heart of Barnard Castle, this mid-terrace two-bedroom house offers spacious, light-filled rooms and a convenient town-centre lifestyle. The lounge’s inglenook with a gas stove creates immediate character and warmth, while a modern kitchen and bathroom reduce immediate renovation costs. A new damp-proof course (20-year guarantee) and double glazing fitted since 2002 are practical reassurance for buyers.
Externally there is a small forecourt and a designated off-street parking space within the Low Mill Development — a real asset in this central location. The plot is described as very large, offering scope for outdoor use or future improvement subject to consents. The property’s mains gas boiler and radiators provide efficient heating and the EPC is a respectable C.
Notable practical points are set out plainly: the listing includes a long lease record of 966 years (dates shown) alongside a stated freehold tenure, so buyers should verify legal title. There is a bi-annual community maintenance charge of £483.20 covering building insurance, windows, external lighting, parking bay and common maintenance. The property was built c.1930–1949 with granite or whinstone walls likely without insulation, so buyers may want to consider insulation improvements.
The wider area is described as deprived with above-average crime rates; while local amenities, good primary and secondary schools, shops and cafés are all within walking distance, purchasers should weigh location benefits against these community indicators. This home will suit first-time buyers or investors seeking immediate rental potential and straightforward updating rather than someone seeking a fully low-maintenance, suburban retreat.
