Well-presented two-bedroom home with converted loft and low running costs.
Victorian mid-terrace with original period features and high ceilings
Set on a Victorian mid-terrace in Sunderland, this well-presented two-bedroom cottage combines period character with modern comforts. The living room retains a traditional fireplace and high ceilings, while quality fittings and wood floors give the interior a polished, ready-to-live-in feel. The home extends to about 1,191 sq ft, including a converted loft that adds versatile space for a home office or hobby room.
Practical details suit everyday family life: mains gas boiler and radiators, double glazing (install date unknown) and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal. The property is freehold and in Council Tax Band A, keeping running costs comparatively low. The small rear garden provides outside space while the plot size remains modest.
Notable considerations are factual and important: the house is a mid-terrace with a small garden, located in an area with higher-than-average crime rates. The external walls are cavity as built with no added insulation assumed, so thermal upgrades could improve comfort and efficiency. The converted loft should be checked for any required consents if future buyers need formal certification.
At a £160,000 guide, this cottage will appeal to buyers seeking period charm, practical commuting links and local schools rated good. It offers immediate move-in quality with sensible opportunities for gradual improvement, making it an accessible option for families or first-time buyers wanting a characterful home in a well-connected urban neighbourhood.
