This three-bedroom mid-terrace on Encombe Terrace offers an affordable entry into Ferryhill with traditional Victorian character and practical living space. The bay-front reception brings natural light to the lounge, while a separate dining room and fitted kitchen support everyday family life. A refurbished bathroom and boarded attic add useful convenience and storage.
Set on a small plot with a low-maintenance rear yard, the house is freehold and well served by fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — practical for modern working and leisure. Nearby good primary schools and local amenities make the location suitable for families and first-time buyers seeking community facilities and transport links.
The property sits in a very deprived neighbourhood with blue-collar terraces; buyers should consider local area conditions and resale outlook. Internally the home is broadly average in presentation and will benefit from some updating to personalise finishes and improve energy performance (EPC TBC). On-street parking and modest room sizes reflect the typical terrace footprint.
Priced at £70,000 this property represents a low-cost opportunity for buyers prepared to invest time or modest funds into modernisation. It will also suit buy-to-let investors looking for rental demand in a village setting, though investors should factor in the local socioeconomic profile when evaluating yield and tenancy risk.
