Ready-to-move-in starter home with large garden and modern services.
Freehold two-bedroom semi-detached, newly renovated throughout
This recently renovated two-bedroom semi-detached house on Marmaduke Street offers a ready-to-move-in option for first-time buyers. The property benefits from a stylish open-plan kitchen/dining room, new heating system, recent rewire and UPVC double glazing, all set within a freehold tenure. A standout feature is the large enclosed rear garden and patio — rare for this street and useful for outdoor living or future extension (subject to consents).
Practical living is delivered across an average-sized footprint of about 820 sqft, with a spacious ground-floor lounge, two double bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom. The house is close to Spennymoor town centre and road links to the A1/A19, with a wide range of shops, services and good primary and secondary schools nearby.
Buyers should note this property will be sold by modern auction. Bidders must allow for a non-refundable reservation fee (4.20% of the purchase price, minimum £6,000 including VAT) and complete within 56 days. The property’s EPC is currently TBC and the immediate area is classified as deprived with above-average crime statistics — factors to consider for insurance and long-term value.
Overall, the house suits first-time purchasers or investors seeking a low-entry freehold with recent mechanical and electrical upgrades, generous garden space and straightforward accommodation. Early inspection and careful review of the auction buyer pack and reservation terms are strongly advised.
