Set on a traditional stone terrace in Stanley, this vacant three-bedroom freehold offers a straightforward entry point to homeownership or a renovation project. The house includes a well-equipped kitchen, a medium-sized living room with original fireplace features, and private gardens to front and rear.

The property is described as a Victorian-period terrace with average overall size (883 sq ft) and standard ceiling heights. It is being offered at £70,000, a price that will attract serious investors and buyers prepared to update. The local area is classified as very deprived with endeavouring social renters nearby; crime levels are average and nearby schools have mixed Ofsted outcomes.
Important condition notes: the house is a fixer-upper and needs modernization throughout. The bathroom is compact and the property will require investment to bring decor, services, and finishes up to modern standards. A buyer’s premium will apply as part of the sale process.
This home suits a cost-conscious first-time buyer willing to carry out improvements, or a small-scale investor/developer targeting refurbishment and rental potential. The small plot and terraced layout limit extension opportunities, so value will come from internal renovation and efficient space use.
