This traditional three-bedroom mid-terrace offers an unusually affordable entry into homeownership in Hetton-le-Hole. At roughly 1,173 sqft and with no upward chain, it suits first-time buyers looking for space, period features and scope to personalise. The property is freehold with an EPC rating of C and very low council tax (Band A).
The ground floor has an open-plan flow from the lounge into the dining area and a kitchen with built-in appliances; a modern ground-floor bathroom includes a walk-in shower. All three first-floor rooms are double in size, providing practical family or flexible living space. There is a small traditional rear yard with rear access rather than a garden.
Important practical points: the house sits in a deprived, high-crime area and will suit buyers who value affordability and are comfortable investing time and money into finishing works. Some interior updating remains desirable — dated decor and mid-century fittings are present — but the property’s solid-brick build, gas central heating and double glazing provide a sound base.
Local amenities are within easy reach: several good primary schools, shops, pharmacy and leisure facilities, plus fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. For buyers prepared to modernise, this home offers immediate occupation, space and clear potential to add value.
