A property in Bishop Auckland has been named the cheapest house in the North East according to the popular estate agent, Zoopla.

Described as an “investment property” the house can be found on Johnson Street, Eldon Lane, Bishop Auckland.

Although the property requires a large amount of refurbishment – despite the strangely nice bathroom – it benefits from being a short distance from Shildon.

Located near a public bus route, it also offers easy access to Bishop Auckland town centre, healthcare services, high street stores, cafes and supermarkets.

The first floor offers potential buyers a master bedroom, two further bedrooms and externally it boasts an enclosed yard to the back with parking in the street at the front.

With no onward chain and being a freehold property, potential buyers can nab the house at just £35,000.
