This three-bedroom semi-detached house on a generous corner plot in Great Lumley is offered chain free on a freehold title. The layout suits a family: a spacious lounge flowing to a dining area and conservatory overlooks mature rear gardens; kitchen plus utility provide practical daily space. A detached garage with electric door and resin driveway give good off-street parking.
The plot is a standout asset — gardens to three sides, patios, planting areas and a converted summer house bar create versatile outdoor living. There is clear scope to extend or reconfigure (planning permission would be required; no application in place). Local amenities and good primary schools are within easy reach, with Chester-le-Street nearby for wider shopping and leisure, and pleasant walking and cycling routes close by.
The house requires cosmetic updating and general renovation: fixtures and finishes are dated and some rooms would benefit from modernisation. Heating is mains gas with a combination boiler; windows are double glazed though installation dates are unknown. Buyers should factor renovation costs and the need to obtain planning consent for any further development.
For a family seeking outdoor space and long-term value, or an investor wanting a refurbishment project with extension potential, this property offers a strong canvas in a quiet, low-crime neighbourhood. Its chain-free status and sizeable plot make it an appealing purchase for buyers prepared to carry out improvement works.
