Considering the comparable properties in the surrounding area, listed between £40,000 and £95,000, the list price of £85,000 appears reasonably competitive. While a few comparable properties sold at lower prices, others achieved higher figures. The lack of sqft data makes a precise price-per-square-foot comparison impossible. Nevertheless, considering location, features, and market activity, the price seems acceptable and not significantly overpriced for the current market.

Based on the provided photos, the property appears to be in generally good condition, with some aspects needing attention. The interior shows signs of recent modernisation in the kitchen and living areas, featuring updated fittings and flooring. However, the exterior might benefit from some upkeep, and some rooms present more dated decor. Overall, while not pristine, the property appears well-maintained enough to avoid needing major renovations, contributing to a fair condition score.

The property is located in Fencehouses, Houghton-le-Spring, which benefits from relatively close proximity to good primary schools like Woodlea Primary School (0.23km) and Bournmoor Primary School (1.07km), both rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted. The area also has reasonably convenient access to transportation links, with Chester-le-Street train station being 7.25km away. While not in a bustling city centre, the presence of nearby amenities and schools contributes to a decent location score. The surrounding streets show a range of property values, indicating some level of diversity within the local market.

The property features a small decked yard to the rear, which is adequate for outdoor space but doesn’t offer significant garden area. The lack of detailed plot size data prevents a higher score; however, the yard improves on the absence of any outdoor space.
