Set at an entry-level price, this freehold Victorian terrace offers an affordable route into West Auckland ownership. The house has two reception rooms, a feature fireplace, built-in bedroom storage and a practical enclosed rear yard — all useful basics for first-time buyers or landlords seeking rental potential.
Internally the home is average-sized (approximately 725 sq ft) with a straightforward layout: front lounge, second reception/dining room, kitchen with plumbing for a washing machine, two bedrooms and a bathroom. Double glazing is fitted to key windows and a rear yard provides a low-maintenance outdoor area.
The property is a renovation opportunity. Cosmetic updating and likely further works will be required to modernise fittings and finishes. The area is classified as very deprived with high local crime rates, so buyers should factor neighbourhood environment and any safety-related improvements into plans.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, low flood risk, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for working from home — plus several ‘Good’ Ofsted-rated schools nearby. The price point and no onward chain make this a realistic project for a first-time buyer ready to invest time and money, or an investor seeking refurbishment and rental income.
