Summary - 47 KIRKSTONE AVENUE PETERLEE SR8 5LJ
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Chain-free starter home with sunny rear garden and sunroom.
No onward chain, straightforward purchase
No onward chain and a modest asking price make this two-bedroom mid-terraced house a straightforward purchase for first-time buyers seeking an entry into homeownership. The property offers a spacious 15ft living room, a bright sunroom extension and a south-facing low-maintenance rear garden — practical features that add everyday comfort and usable outdoor space.
The layout is traditional and flexible: two double bedrooms upstairs, a functional kitchen and a bathroom. UPVC double glazing and mains gas central heating provide basic thermal comfort. A front yard with an outhouse adds secure storage, while a garage (currently rented from the housing provider) gives potential extra storage or parking subject to separate arrangements.
Buyers should note material and neighbourhood considerations. The property dates from the 1930s–1940s and the cavity walls are assumed uninsulated; further insulating and updating may be required to improve energy efficiency. The area is classed as very deprived with higher-than-average crime levels — important factors for budgeting and future resale. The shared driveway and rented garage arrangement may limit immediate control over parking.
Overall this chain-free terrace suits a buyer looking for an affordable, practical home they can personalise. It offers good sunlight, straightforward accommodation and scope for value-adding improvements, but requires realistic expectations about neighbourhood challenges and likely retrofit works.
