The property is a 2 bedroom cottage situated in White Kirkley, Frosterley, Weardale. The asking price is £179,950.

The cottage appears to be in good condition. The interior is well-maintained and presented. The kitchen and bathroom are modern and functional. There is evidence of some modernisation, but the property retains traditional character with exposed beams. The exterior is also well-maintained and the property benefits from a small, manageable garden.

The location is rural, in the Weardale area of County Durham. While this offers a peaceful setting, it is important to note that it is a considerable distance from larger towns and cities. The nearest primary school, Frosterley Primary School, is approximately 1.05km away and has a good Ofsted rating. Other schools are further afield. Public transportation options appear limited in this area.

The plot size is small, but the garden is well-maintained and provides a pleasant outdoor space.

Considering the average price per sqft in the area (£246) and the property’s size (958 sqft), a reasonable expectation would be a price in the region of £236,000. The asking price of £179,950 is significantly lower than this estimate. However, the lack of comparable properties with sqft data makes it difficult to definitively assess the value. The lower price may reflect the remote location and limited amenities nearby. Further investigation into comparable properties in the area, with accurate sqft data, would be beneficial to fully assess the price.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
