Summary - 43 DURHAM ROAD BLACKHILL CONSETT DH8 8RS
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Chain-free starter home with generous rooms and renovation potential.
Stone-built Victorian mid-terrace with period features
Set on a stone-built Victorian terrace, this three-bedroom mid-terrace home on Durham Road is offered chain free and at an accessible price point. The property retains period character — high ceilings, a feature fireplace and traditional coving — while living spaces feel larger than typical for the street.
The ground floor offers two generous reception rooms and a fitted kitchen with integrated oven and touchscreen hob. Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a smaller third room that will work well as a home office or nursery. The bathroom is a straightforward three-piece suite with an overhead shower. Outside is an enclosed paved yard, low-maintenance but small in size.
Practical strengths include mains gas central heating, double glazing (install date unknown) and very low local crime. The house sits in an area with good primary and secondary schools nearby and local amenities, including shops and public transport, within walking distance.
Notable considerations: the solid sandstone/limestone walls are recorded with no built-in insulation (assumed), so upgrading thermal performance may be needed to reduce running costs. The rear yard is paved and compact, offering limited outdoor space. Overall this home suits buyers seeking a period property to personalise, first-time purchasers wanting a manageable starter house, or investors targeting a rental in a quiet, affluent neighbourhood.
