Compact Victorian two-bed near town centre and castle, ideal for first-time buyers or investors.
Chain free freehold period cottage in Barnard Castle
This mid-terrace Victorian cottage offers compact, characterful living in the heart of Barnard Castle, just a short stroll from the town centre and castle views. The interior is presented in good order with a fitted kitchen/diner, a cosy living room and two well-proportioned bedrooms — ready for immediate occupation or rental.
Externally the plot is very small: a paved courtyard and a separate small lawned garden provide outdoor space, plus off-street parking. The front elevation is period in style but shows some external age (roof mossing and dated finishes) and may benefit from cosmetic refresh to the façade and gutters.
Practical considerations: the property is chain free and freehold with gas central heating, double glazing and an EPC rating of D. Notable risks include a high local flood risk and a high crime statistic for the area; the stone walls are likely uninsulated and the plot is compact, which may limit extension potential.
Overall this cottage suits a first-time buyer wanting a low-maintenance town-centre home with character, or an investor seeking a lettable two-bed in a market with strong local schools and tourist appeal. Be aware of external maintenance and the local flood/crime factors when considering purchase or insurance.
