A practical two-bedroom mid-terrace on a quiet street in Shildon, offering a genuine first-time buyer opportunity. The house is freehold, double-glazed and heated by a mains gas boiler with radiators, presented as deceptively spacious across roughly 776 sq ft. The property benefits from both front and a good-sized rear garden, useful for families or anyone wanting outdoor space.
Internally the layout is straightforward: entrance hall, lounge to the front, fitted kitchen with rear access, and two well-proportioned bedrooms served by a single bathroom. Constructed in the late 1960s–1970s, the home is sound and ready to live in but will reward cosmetic updating to match modern tastes and increase value.
Location is convenient for local shops, sports facilities and regular bus links; several nearby primary and secondary schools have Good or Outstanding Ofsted ratings. Practical advantages include fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, plus off-street parking nearby.
Buyers should note the wider area shows high deprivation and elevated crime levels, which may affect long-term desirability and resale. The EPC is rated D and council tax banding is not provided. This property suits a cost-conscious buyer seeking a sensible starter home with garden space and scope to personalise.
