Summary - Wheatley Terrace, Wheatley Hill, County Durham, DH6 3RW DH6 3RW
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Chain-free two-bedroom home with driveway — ideal starter home or buy-to-let near A1/A19.
Chain-free two-bedroom mid-terrace, ready to occupy or let
A straightforward two-bedroom mid-terrace offered chain-free and ready for an owner-occupier or landlord. The house has practical features — private driveway, low-maintenance patio garden, double glazing and gas central heating — that reduce day-to-day costs and make the property easy to manage.
Internally the layout suits a starter home or rental: front lounge opening to a dining kitchen, ground-floor WC, utility area and two double bedrooms served by a first-floor shower room. Room sizes are average for this style; some internal finishes (1980s décor, dated living room features) will benefit from cosmetic updating to maximise appeal and rental value.
Buyers should note the location’s socioeconomic challenges: the wider area is classified as very deprived with a high local crime level. The plot is small and external space is low maintenance rather than generous. These factors affect resale pricing but also support a lower purchase price and potentially strong rental demand for affordable accommodation close to Durham, the A1 and A19.
For first-time buyers this is an affordable, low-running-cost option with commuter convenience and minimal garden upkeep. For investors it provides immediate lettable accommodation with straightforward scope for cosmetic improvement to increase yields.
