Summary - 5 THE CRESCENT TANFIELD LEA STANLEY DH9 9NQ
3 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Affordable three-bed semi with off-street parking and garden—ideal for first-time buyers seeking local convenience.
Three bedrooms, two bathrooms in semi-detached layout
A traditional three-bedroom semi-detached home offering straightforward living space and outdoor room for a growing household. The ground floor includes a lounge/diner, modern kitchen with utility, and a practical downstairs shower room, while upstairs provides two double bedrooms, a single and a family bathroom with corner bath and separate shower.
Practical positives include off-street parking, front and rear gardens, freehold tenure and fast broadband availability. The property sits on a decent plot and was built in the 1930s–1940s, giving it solid, period construction and scope for modest extension (subject to planning).
Buyers should note a few material considerations: the EPC is grade D, double glazing dates from before 2002 and some updating may be needed to modernise heating or insulation. The local area is classified as deprived with limited affluence, so resale may suit local owner-occupiers or investors targeting affordable stock. Nearby schools and basic amenities are within walking distance, though one local secondary has a weaker Ofsted rating.
This is a sensible, affordable option for first-time buyers or downsizers wanting space and parking without a premium price. It will suit someone happy to carry out light refurbishments to personalise and improve energy efficiency.
