A compact two-bedroom Victorian terrace in the desirable Denes area, offered with no onward chain and immediate vacant possession via auction. At 577 sq ft this small freehold home suits landlords seeking a straightforward rental addition or buyers wanting a manageable refurbishment close to Darlington town centre and Memorial Hospital.
The property benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and a practical ground-floor bathroom. Rooms are naturally lit and include built-in storage to Bedroom One. Broadband speeds are reported fast, and there is no flood risk.
Visible wear and some mold in the narrow hallway indicate cosmetic and decorating work is needed; the house is best described as a tidy project rather than a turnkey home. The auction sale carries important additional costs: a Buyer Information Pack fee, and a non-refundable Reservation Fee of 4.5% of the purchase price (minimum £6,600). Buyers using a mortgage should check suitability with their lender before bidding.
This property’s strengths are location, low running costs and clear rental or refurbishment potential. Its drawbacks are small overall size, signs of damp/mould in places, constrained internal layouts, and the auction terms and fees which add to purchase costs. Early inspection is recommended to assess scope and budget for works.
