The list price of £195,000 appears reasonably priced in comparison to other properties in the area. While specific square footage data is missing from nearby listings, there is enough information on similar properties to give a good indication. The property’s location within The Hermitage, condition, and inclusion of amenities (shared grounds) all factor into this pricing consideration. Overall, it seems to be a competitive price point within the local market.

Based on the provided photographs, the apartment appears to be in good condition. The kitchen and living areas feature modern fittings and finishes. The overall presentation suggests well-maintained interiors. While no specific details regarding structural integrity or repairs needed are provided, the visible aspects look very presentable.

The property is located within The Hermitage, a desirable location in Chester-le-Street, County Durham. Proximity to good schools like Newker Primary School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and Red Rose Primary School (‘Outstanding’) is a significant plus. Train stations are also relatively close, offering convenient commuting options. The surrounding area appears to have a mix of property types and price points, contributing to a balanced and potentially stable market.

The property includes a shared lawn area, which is nice, but it is not a private garden. While the surrounding grounds of The Hermitage are attractive, the lack of exclusive outside space for this particular apartment lowers the land score.
