This well-presented three-bedroom detached house on a quiet cul-de-sac suits growing families seeking straightforward, ready-to-live-in accommodation. The ground floor combines a bay-front living room with a modern open-plan kitchen/dining area and useful adjoining utility room — layout that supports daily family life and casual entertaining.
The principal bedroom includes an en-suite, with two further bedrooms and a family bathroom on the first floor. Practical features include gas central heating, full UPVC double glazing, an EPC rating of C and a single garage with driveway parking. The rear garden is enclosed and mainly lawned with a paved patio area for outdoor use.
Location benefits include nearby primary and secondary schools with Good Ofsted ratings, and easy access to local shops and larger towns such as Crook and Bishop Auckland. Broadband speeds are strong for the area (superfast/ultrafast tiers available), and the property is freehold with affordable council tax banding.
Notable considerations are factual: the house sits in a modest, small-town development within an area classed as deprived and with above-average local crime statistics. Mobile signal is only average. While the property appears well kept, buyers should inspect to confirm condition and any maintenance needs — the build dates c.2003–2006 mean systems are relatively modern but not new.
Overall this home will appeal to families looking for sensible space, good local schools and easy upkeep, while buyers prioritising low-crime, high-status neighbourhoods or rural seclusion may find the location less suitable.
