This two-bedroom mid-terraced house on Whinside, Stanley, is a straightforward, chain-free purchase for a first-time buyer or small family seeking an affordable starter home. The compact layout delivers a long lounge/diner, a fitted kitchen with integrated oven and dishwasher, two upstairs bedrooms and a first-floor bathroom. Practical features include gas combi central heating, uPVC double glazing and an EPC rating of C (70).
Outside offers low-maintenance paved garden space and gated off-street parking accessed via twin gates, plus a detached brick tool shed. The plot is small but easy to manage, which suits buyers wanting minimal exterior upkeep. Council Tax is in band A, keeping running costs low.
The property sits in a hard‑pressed, disadvantaged area where local services are mixed; crime is reported as average and the wider neighbourhood is predominantly rented terraces. Internally the house is presented neutrally but there are signs it would benefit from some updating or cosmetic refresh to maximise comfort and resale value.
In short: a budget-friendly, freehold terrace with useful practicalities (parking, garden, fitted kitchen) and clear potential for improvement. It’s best suited to buyers prioritising affordability and low running costs over large living spaces or a premium neighbourhood location.
