A fully rebuilt 2 bedroom terrace in New Shildon. Move-in ready. 2½ hours from London King's Cross on LNER. For less than the average deposit on a big city flat.
The average London first-time buyer pays £690,000. That money buys a mortgage. This money buys a house. Freehold. Yours. No landlord. No service charge. No lease expiry.
This is a unique 2 bedroom mid-terrace house stripped back to its bones and rebuilt properly. Over £55,000 invested in structural remediation and full refurbishment since 2022. Everything is new. No other terrace comes close to this standard. Move in, unpack, live.
Spacious rooms with tall period ceilings and natural light.
Lounge, dining room, breakfast room, kitchen, bathroom, entrance hall. Plus yard.
Foundation-level tanking, damp-proof injection, specialist render. Not a cosmetic flip.
Kitchen, bathroom, boiler, floors, joists, carpets, laminate, electrics, plumbing, chimney liner, wood stove.
Most cheap terrace houses hide damp behind fresh paint. This one was taken back to bare walls and remediated from the foundations up. Every system has been replaced.
