This three-bedroom semi-detached home on Oakdale Road offers a practical, affordable entry into Consett’s housing market. The property benefits from recent upgrades including a new boiler, new rear French doors and solar panels, which together help reduce running costs. The layout includes two reception rooms and a decent rear garden, making it suitable for first-time buyers or young families.
The house is freehold, in Council Tax Band A, and has off-street parking to the front. Built in the mid-20th century with filled cavity walls and double glazing, the home is structurally typical for its era. Its compact overall size (approximately 806 sq ft) means manageable upkeep but limited living space compared with larger family houses.
Location is convenient: local primary and secondary schools are within walking distance and Consett town centre is nearby, with good public transport and local amenities. Note the area records above-average crime levels; prospective buyers may wish to factor this into security and insurance considerations.
Internally the property will suit buyers happy to personalise: there’s clear potential to modernise finishes and reconfigure spaces, but only one bathroom and modest room sizes may be limiting for larger households. Overall, this is a practical, cost-conscious purchase with energy-saving features and scope for value-adding improvements.
