Chain-free and currently tenanted until November 2025, this spacious two-bedroom mid-terrace on Sowerby Street offers clear appeal for an investor or buy-to-let purchaser seeking immediate income. The property extends to about 948 sqft and includes two generous reception rooms, a modern high-gloss white kitchen, and a bathroom with both bath and shower.
The tenant has occupied the house for several years and would prefer to remain, offering continuity of rental income; however their tenancy ends in November 2025 and terms are flexible. Heating is mains gas via a boiler and radiators, glazing is double, and the home sits in a commuter-friendly village with good shops, schools and public transport links between Durham City and Chester-le-Street.
Externally there is a small paved front garden and a rear yard. The house is traditional mid-terrace construction (c.1900–1929) with filled cavity walls and a compact plot, so outdoor space is limited. Council tax band is low and the EPC is a C, but buyers should note the property is in a working-class, higher-deprivation area which can affect long-term capital growth prospects.
Practical considerations: although the kitchen appears modern and the property is in generally good order, photos show some aged external pipework and the bathroom has wall/ceiling cladding — buyers should inspect for any maintenance or modernisation needs. This is a straightforward, income-producing terraced house with potential for modest rental uplift after targeted improvements.
