Summary - 12, Cotherstone Court, Easington Lane DH5 0NJ
1 bed 1 bath End of Terrace
One-bedroom freehold with parking — let and income-producing..
Tenanted at £395 pcm (annual £4,740)
A compact, modern one-bedroom end-of-terrace house presented as a straightforward investment opportunity. Constructed post-2007 with double glazing and mains gas central heating, the property offers an open-plan first-floor living area, a double bedroom, modern bathroom and useful ground-floor cloakroom/storage. Allocated off-street parking and wrap-around enclosed gardens add practical appeal for tenants and future occupants.
The house is currently let at £395 pcm, producing an approximate gross yield of about 6.8% at the asking price of £69,950 (annual rent £4,740). It is freehold, council tax band A and has an EPC rating of C, reducing immediate energy-upgrade pressure compared with lower-rated stock. Local amenities, primary schools with Good Ofsted ratings and regular bus links are close by, supporting tenant demand.
Buyers should factor in the local context: the area is classified as very deprived with higher-than-average crime levels, which can affect re-letting speed, rental growth and resale values. The plot is small and the property is a one-bedroom, so the market is primarily single occupiers or couples. The property is sold with a tenant in situ, so purchase will be subject to existing tenancy terms and an investor should confirm rent, deposit and tenancy documentation before exchange.
