This two-bedroom mid-terrace cottage on Grindon Terrace offers practical, single-level living in High Barnes with no upward chain. The layout includes two reception rooms, a kitchen, shower room and built-in bedroom wardrobes — useful for buyers wanting immediate occupancy or straightforward rental income. Period features such as a front bay window and fireplaces remain but the interior would benefit from cosmetic modernisation.
Externally the property sits on a small urban plot with a low-maintenance rear courtyard and a small forecourt to the front. Services are modern enough for everyday use: double glazing (install date unknown), mains gas boiler and radiators. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home-working or streamed entertainment.
Location is a strong practical advantage: close to local shops, Good-rated primary and secondary schools, Sunderland Royal Hospital and regular bus routes. The area has low crime levels, though it sits within a deprived district — buyers should weigh long-term capital-growth prospects accordingly. The property is freehold with a modest council tax band (B) and is offered chain-free, making a quick exchange possible for the right buyer.
