The property is a 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom detached house located in Pelton, County Durham. It has a plot size of 1,060.25 sqft and is listed at £264,995. The average house price in the area is £156,737, with an average price per sqft of £159. This property is significantly larger than average at 940.03 sqft.

The property appears to be in excellent condition, having undergone a recent and tasteful modernisation. The kitchen and bathrooms are modern and well-equipped. The interior is presented in a clean and contemporary style, suggesting minimal need for repairs or renovations. The garden is relatively small but has potential and is enclosed.

Pelton benefits from being close to Pelton Community Primary School, which has a good Ofsted rating, and other schools within a reasonable distance. Transport links appear adequate with Chester-le-Street train station approximately 3.42 km away. The location is likely considered reasonably convenient, though the precise desirability would depend on individual priorities.

Considering the property’s excellent condition, modern finishes, and relatively convenient location, the list price of £264,995 seems somewhat high compared to the average price in the area. However, the significantly larger size and recent renovation work justify a higher price than the average. Nearby comparable properties support this higher price point, though the absence of sqft data for these comparisons limits the precision of this assessment. Further investigation into the specific features and amenities of these similar properties would be beneficial.

Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
