This property is a 5 bedroom, 3 bathroom detached house located in Wheatley Hill, Durham. The property benefits from a large plot size of 2,390.66 sqft and a total area of 1,846.01 sqft.

The location is reasonably close to several primary schools, with Wheatley Hill Community Primary School being rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted. The proximity to these schools could be a significant advantage for families. However, information on nearby transportation links is lacking, which could be a drawback for some buyers.

Based on the images provided, the property appears to be in good condition, having undergone significant modernisation. The kitchen and bathrooms are modern and well-presented. While some areas show signs of ongoing work or minor disorganisation (such as the laundry room), the overall impression is one of a well-maintained home.

The property includes a substantial rear garden and patio area, adding to its appeal. The size of the plot is significantly larger than the average for the area.

Considering the average house price in the area is £133,892 and the average price per sqft is £132, the listing price of £540,000 for this property appears high. However, the significantly larger size (1,846.01 sqft compared to the average of 1,012 sqft), the modern condition, and the substantial plot size justify a higher price than the average. A full comparative market analysis of similar properties in the immediate vicinity would be needed to definitively assess the value. The lack of sqft data for nearby properties makes a precise comparison difficult.

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