Summary - 6 EMMERSON STREET CROOK DL15 8NG
1 bed 1 bath Terraced
Chain-free one-bedroom end-terrace in Crook — low price, central location, needs some updating.
Chain-free one-bedroom end-terrace, freehold
A compact one-bedroom end-terrace offered chain-free in Crook town centre — a straightforward purchase for a first-time buyer or investor seeking low entry cost. The house is freehold and heated by a Baxi gas combination boiler; recent works include a refitted kitchen and bathroom, so key services are in place. Council tax is low, and the property sits within easy walking distance of shops, healthcare and bus links.
Accommodation is modest but practical: a ground-floor lounge with understairs storage, a small fitted kitchen and a good-sized double bedroom above. The property totals about 555 sq ft and presents a clean, neutral interior ready for cosmetic updating. There is no private garden; a shared yard provides space for bins only.
Buyers should note material neighbourhood and property factors plainly. The local area records very high crime levels and is classified as deprived; prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves about personal safety and insurance costs. The house is older (1930–1949 construction) with cavity walls and double glazing of unknown install date. EPC is D. While some rooms are in good decorative order, other elements show wear and the property will benefit from further modernisation and ongoing maintenance.
At £40,000 this offers an affordable route into homeownership or a low-cost rental opportunity, but it suits buyers who accept a compact footprint, town-centre living and the need to manage area-related risks. Viewing is recommended for anyone prioritising proximity to local amenities and a no-chain purchase over outdoor space and a quiet neighbourhood.
