Summary - Aberdare Road, Farringdon, Sunderland, Tyne and Wear, SR3 3EG SR3 3EG
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Corner-plot two-bed with garden, ideal for investors or renovators.
Freehold two-bedroom semi-detached, approx. 749 sq ft
This two-bedroom semi-detached house on Aberdare Road is being sold at modern auction and offers a clear value play for investors or hands-on buyers willing to renovate. The house is freehold, sits on a corner plot with garden and driveway, and benefits from double glazing and mains gas central heating—basic services are in place to make refurbishment straightforward.
The property requires full modernisation throughout: floors, kitchen, bathroom and likely internal finishes. The construction is a mid-1950s system-built type with assumed no cavity insulation, so factor in thermal upgrades. The area is very deprived with above-average crime; buy with an understanding of local lettability and lettings demand. Council Tax band A keeps running costs low.
Sold at auction with associated terms and fees, this lot suits experienced property investors or DIY buyers aiming to add value. It’s an average-sized home (approx. 749 sq ft) offering two good-sized bedrooms, a living room with bay window, and a sizeable external footprint for potential extension or garden improvement, subject to planning. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support modern rentals or home-working tenants.
Material negatives are clear and factual: renovation needed, possible wall insulation works due to system-built construction, and the surrounding neighbourhood scores indicate higher crime and local deprivation—these affect resale and rental yields and should inform valuation and finance decisions. Viewings are likely limited by auction timetable; check auction pack and legal pack for full costs and restrictions.
