This three-bedroom maisonette in Kenilworth Court is a compact, newly renovated investment opportunity in Washington. The property is chain-free and benefits from a new boiler, new double glazing units and bright, open-plan living with a balcony. At around 478 sq ft the layout is efficient: an open-plan lounge/kitchen and a third room currently used as a study on the upper level, with two double bedrooms, bathroom and separate WC on the lower level.
The building sits within communal gardens and offers on-street parking. Practical positives for an investor include a very low Council Tax band (A), good broadband and mobile signal, and straightforward commuting access to the A19/A1 and local bus links. The property will be sold via secure online auction (terms apply) — buyers should budget for auction costs and immediate completion requirements.
Important drawbacks are clear and factual: the flat has a leasehold title with approximately 85 years remaining, it sits in an area with high crime and very high deprivation, and overall internal space is small. Parking is on-street only and the building dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s, so communal maintenance or service charges may apply (not specified). These factors affect mortgageability and long-term resale; purchasers should obtain mortgage and leasehold advice prior to bidding.
For the right buyer — particularly a professional investor or a buyer seeking a low-entry auction purchase close to Sunderland and Newcastle transport links — this maisonette offers immediate rental or refurbishment potential with minimal upfront work, thanks to recent updates. Viewing and pre-purchase checks are strongly advised to confirm lease terms, running costs and financing options.
