Comfortable, newly renovated three-bedroom semi-detached house arranged over two storeys, presented in warm, move-in-ready condition. The ground floor offers a formal lounge that opens to the rear garden, an open-plan kitchen/diner to the front and a convenient downstairs WC. Upstairs features a family bathroom plus an ensuite to the principal bedroom. The property totals approximately 890 sq ft and benefits from gas central heating and double glazing.
Outdoor space is modest but practical: a larger-than-average rear garden for the area and off-street parking enabling space for two vehicles. The plot is small and garden amenity is limited compared with larger suburban lots. The property sits on a residential cul-de-sac minutes from the market town of Barnard Castle, with good local amenities, strong broadband and excellent mobile signal.
This home will appeal to young families or professionals seeking a straightforward, affordable move with minimal immediate works required — newly renovated interiors reduce short-term maintenance. Key practical positives include an ensuite, downstairs WC, freehold tenure and council tax band C. Notable considerations: the neighbourhood records higher-than-average crime, the plot and external amenity are modest, and valuation should reflect local comparable three-bedroom semis in Startforth/Barnard Castle.
Overall, the house offers clear value for money for buyers wanting an attractive, ready-to-move-in family home close to schools, shops and countryside amenities. It’s a practical choice for first-time buyers or investors seeking a lettable three-bedroom in a well-connected village setting, provided they accept the modest outdoor space and local crime levels.
