Summary - 30 Front Street, STAINDROP DL2 3NH
4 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Stone-built village freehold with income and spacious four-bedroom home..
Income-generating ground-floor shop at £110/week (informal tenancy)
A substantial stone-built freehold with a ground-floor commercial unit and four-bedroom residential accommodation above, set in the heart of Staindrop village. The shop is currently income-generating and the house provides generous family-sized rooms, exposed beams and traditional character throughout. Its central village location places schools, shops and amenities within easy walking distance while Barnard Castle, Bishop Auckland and Darlington are all within a short drive.
The commercial unit is let informally at a passing rent of £110 per week (including water rates); tenants pay electrical supply and business rates. This provides immediate rental income but the tenancy is informal and low; an investor should expect scope to formalise the lease or re-let at a higher market rent. The residential part offers four double bedrooms and two bathrooms, a spacious living room with exposed beams and a dining kitchen opening to an enclosed courtyard garden.
The building is traditional sandstone/limestone, constructed before 1900, with gas central heating and double glazing installed before 2002. There is likely little or no wall insulation and some elements (windows, finishes) may benefit from updating. The plot is small and the rear courtyard is private but compact, so outdoor space is limited. Council Tax band C and low flood/crime risk are practical benefits for an investor or owner-occupier.
Overall this property suits a buyer wanting immediate rental income plus a sizeable residential unit with character and village convenience. It will reward those prepared to invest in thermal improvements and internal updating to maximise rental value or family comfort.
