This well-presented two-bedroom stone cottage sits close to Middleton-in-Teesdale’s centre and is offered with no onward chain. The open-plan ground floor is bright, neutrally decorated and benefits from wood-effect laminate flooring and a modern fitted kitchen. Upstairs are two doubles, a small adjoining dressing room/nursery and far-reaching countryside views.
Practical points suit buyers seeking a compact, low-maintenance home or affordable first purchase: freehold tenure, a small cobbled forecourt for parking, and a low Council Tax band. The property lies in a conservation area and retains traditional stone walls and characterful proportions.
Buyers should note the property is electrically heated (storage and timed electric heaters) and the stone walls are assumed to have no insulation; the EPC is rated 42 (E). There are restrictive covenants limiting use to private residence/holiday home, and owners must contribute 25% toward shared area upkeep. Those factors affect running costs and future alteration options.
Overall, this cottage will appeal to first-time buyers or downsizers seeking a ready-to-move-in period home with character and countryside views, provided they accept the heritage constraints and electric-heating running costs. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the setting and layout.
