Being Sold via Secure Sale online bidding. Terms & Conditions apply.

Set across three well-proportioned storeys, this inviting terraced house in the heart of Tow Law, County Durham, offers superb potential for families, first-time buyers, and investors alike. Requiring some modernisation but presented chain free, the property delivers flexible living spaces and an affordable opportunity to enhance and personalise to your own taste.

The ground floor offers you with a versatile space that can function either as a comfortable bedroom or a relaxing lounge, ensuring complete adaptability to suit changing needs. On the first floor, a spacious and naturally lit lounge is complemented by a dedicated dining area. A separate, good-sized kitchen provides ample room for meal preparation, while both a modern wet room and a separate WC add consistent comfort and practicality.

Climbing to the top floor reveals two exceptionally generous double bedrooms. Each benefits from abundant natural light and offers plenty of space for restful nights or peaceful study. To the rear, there’s a fully enclosed yard—ideal for container gardening, alfresco dining, or simply enjoying a breath of fresh air. On-street parking is readily available, adding further convenience.

Ideally situated in the historic town of Tow Law—once celebrated for its proud industrial past—the property is surrounded by a friendly community atmosphere. The dramatic landscapes of the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty are just minutes away, offering a variety of walking trails, cycling routes, and breath-taking scenic vistas. Tow Law itself provides a range of everyday amenities, including local shops, well-regarded schools, and welcoming pubs.

ONLINE AUCTION NOTICE

I hereby acknowledge and confirm the following:

My bid may be accepted by the seller at any time before the close of the auction. It is subject to the terms and conditions of the auction which I have read and understood. I have read and understood the legal pack applicable to my bid/lot and agree to be bound by any special conditions within that pack.

If my bid is successful (whether as the highest bid or upon acceptance by the seller in the course of the auction) I shall be bound by the lot terms and conditions as advertised online.

Any amount payable at the close of the auction must be paid within 1 hour.

Please note that the bidding process will work in a different way to an eBay auction, so there is NO advantage to bidding at the last second.

Each auction will automatically stay open until there has not been a bid within the final 10 minutes. If no bid has been submitted within the final 10 minutes of the auction, the auction will close and the highest bidder will be successful subject to the reserve price being met or upon acceptance of an offer by the seller throughout the auction cycle. If there is another bid within 10 minutes of the last bid, the auction countdown timer will be restarted for another 10 minutes to allow further bidding. This system avoids last-minute (or second) bidding and makes for a fairer auction as in a live-room auction situation.

Please bid in good time before the end of the auction, delaying your bid to the last seconds may disadvantage you if your connection slows or you lose internet connectivity.

The auctioneer is not responsible for any tech issues, power outage or error messages which hampers or eliminates an individual's opportunity to bid.

It is the bidder's responsibility to ensure the bid has been lodged with the auctioneer. It is therefore beneficial to bid on your chosen lot at your earliest opportunity.

The auctioneer accepts no responsibility for bids that are not received or are received late and reserves the right to reject any bid without notice.

Minimum online bidding increments:
£50,000 - £250 minimum bid
