Set on the edge of West Auckland, this stone-built mid-terrace cottage offers solid period character and practical living space for first-time buyers or a small family. Rooms are generously proportioned — especially the living room and master bedroom — and the property benefits from gas central heating and UPVC double glazing. A rear enclosed garden provides private outdoor space and scope for landscaping or entertaining.
The home requires some cosmetic modernisation: the living room and other rooms show dated finishes and the stone walls are likely uninsulated, which may affect running costs. The EPC rating is D. On-street parking only and the plot is small, so this is best suited to buyers prioritising location and character over extensive outside space.
Local convenience is a genuine strength: shops, healthcare, schools and Tindale’s Retail Park are close by, with good public transport links to Bishop Auckland, Darlington and Durham. Nearby primary and secondary schools have generally positive Ofsted reports, making the house practical for young families.
This property represents an affordable route into a traditional stone cottage in a well-connected area. Buyers prepared to refresh interiors and possibly improve insulation can create a comfortable, characterful home and add value over time.
