This stone-built end terrace cottage offers a compact, well-presented home in a sought-after Ryton location. The house has two double bedrooms, a large lounge, and an open-plan kitchen/dining area that suits modern daily living and entertaining. Gas central heating with Hive controls and a boiler installed about five years ago give immediate comfort and efficient controls.
Outside is a small, enclosed rear yard with a covered section—useful for sheltered storage or a dry spot for bikes and bins. The property faces onto a green and sits within a comfortable, largely white suburban neighbourhood close to local amenities, good schools and regular bus links, making it convenient for first-time buyers.
Practical points to note: the home is freehold and in council tax band A. The building dates from before 1900 and has sandstone/limestone walls which are assumed to have no insulation; the double glazing installation date is unknown. The accommodation is average-sized overall (about 771 sq ft) with one family bathroom and limited garden/plot size.
This property will appeal to buyers seeking a character cottage that’s move-in ready but with scope to add value through sympathetic upgrades—particularly insulation, and any personalisation to kitchen and bathroom fittings. It’s a straightforward, low-cost-to-run starter home in a very good local setting.
