Summary - 1 LIME AVENUE HOUGHTON LE SPRING DH4 5ED
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Chain-free starter home with driveway and gardens near good schools.
Three bedrooms with traditional layout and fitted kitchen/diner
A practical three-bedroom end-terrace offering an accessible entry point to homeownership or a straightforward rental investment. The house sits on a small corner plot with off-street parking, front and rear gardens, and a fitted kitchen/diner — features that appeal to families and tenants alike. Its freehold status and chain-free sale simplify purchase logistics.
Internally the layout is traditional with a lounge, kitchen/diner and three first-floor bedrooms plus a family bathroom. The property is gas-central heated with double glazing (installation date unknown) and a boiler with radiators, giving the core services buyers expect. Nearby amenities include frequent buses, local shops, sports facilities and several well-rated primary and secondary schools within walking distance.
The home will suit buyers prepared to refresh and personalise: parts of the interior need redecoration and modernisation to reach full market potential. The property is modest in size (approximately 717 sq ft) and sits on a small plot, so prospective owners should consider space limits for extensions or large-scale landscaping.
Buyers must also weigh two significant contextual points: the neighbourhood records very high crime and a very deprived area classification. These factors affect long-term resale and rental demand and should be reflected in offer levels and any refurbishment decisions. Overall, this property represents clear value for a first-time buyer or investor willing to carry out light-to-medium updates to boost returns.
