Income-ready flat with garage close to town centre ideal for investors.
Two-bedroom first-floor flat with 453 sq ft practical layout
This first-floor two-bedroom flat on Thistleflat Road is offered with a tenant in situ, making it immediately income-producing for a buy-to-let portfolio. The property includes a single garage and a small paved front garden, useful for tenant storage or modest outdoor seating. Its 453 sq ft layout is compact but practical, with a separate living room, kitchen and shower room.
Practical features include mains gas central heating, double glazing and an EPC grade C, helping to control running costs. The long lease (137 years remaining) and very low council tax are added benefits for long-term ownership. The flat’s location close to Crook town centre provides straightforward access to shops, transport links and local services.
Notable drawbacks are the property’s small overall size and above-average local crime level; these are relevant when assessing rental demand and tenant screening. The flat is leasehold, so buyers should factor in leasehold management and any service charges. No significant structural issues are indicated, but buyers should verify the age and condition of windows, boiler and electrics during survey.
Overall this is a compact, low-maintenance investment with immediate rental potential and straightforward tenant management. It will suit investors seeking a town-centre rental with low holding costs, or a first-time buyer prepared for modest living space.
