This mid-terrace Victorian home on Railway Terrace offers straightforward, move-in-ready accommodation ideal for first-time buyers or young families. The house is presented in good order throughout, with a modern kitchen/dining room, lounge with French doors and three well-proportioned bedrooms upstairs. Heating is by a mains-gas combination boiler and the property benefits from UPVC double glazing.
The standout external feature is a large rear garden with lawn, mature borders, fruit trees, patios and a garden shed — rare for a terraced plot and useful for children, pets or entertaining. The front has an enclosed, low-maintenance yard ideal for bin storage.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, no forward chain for a quicker sale, very low council tax (Band A) and fast broadband/mobile signal. The home sits close to local shops, healthcare and good primary and secondary schools, with nearby towns and Durham within easy driving distance.
Notable limitations are factual: the plot is narrow (small front yard), there is a single family bathroom, and the double glazing was installed before 2002 (older frames). The surrounding area is classified as relatively deprived, which may affect long-term resale in some market segments. Overall this is a well-kept, affordable family starter home with a rare large rear garden and straightforward maintenance needs.
