The property is located in Belmont, Durham, a suburb of Durham City. The area benefits from relatively close proximity to Durham City Centre, offering access to amenities, transport links, and places of significance. Several primary schools are within a reasonable distance, including St Hild’S College Church of England Aided Primary School which has a ‘Good’ Ofsted rating and Laurel Avenue Community Primary School, also rated ‘Good’. The presence of nearby train stations, Durham and Chester-Le-Street, provides convenient access to other parts of the UK. However, the provided data does not offer sufficient information to fully assess the quality of local shops or other amenities.

Based on the photographs, the property appears to be in reasonable condition. While it seems well-maintained, the decor and fixtures suggest it might benefit from some modernisation to appeal to a wider range of buyers. The kitchen and bathroom, in particular, show signs of age and could be updated. There is no evidence of significant structural issues or damage.

The property includes a garden, which is a desirable feature for many buyers. The size is not specified, but the images suggest a reasonably sized, well-maintained outdoor space.

The list price of £180,000 requires further analysis. The lack of square footage data for comparable properties makes a direct price per square foot comparison challenging. However, considering the property’s condition, the presence of a garden, and its location in Belmont, the asking price appears to be within the reasonable range for the area, although more detailed local market data would be necessary for a definitive assessment. Nearby properties on Dean’s Walk and Fellside Gardens have average prices in the £175,000-£187,450 range, suggesting the list price is competitive.

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