Summary - 19 Minster Court DH1 2DP
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Compact, chain-free one-bed with communal gardens and long lease — great first home or investment..
Chain free ground-floor apartment with private entrance
This ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in Minster Court offers a compact, chain-free home in Belmont, a convenient and well-served Durham suburb. The flat benefits from a private entrance, double glazing and gas central heating via a combination boiler, plus communal gardens and off-street parking — practical features for first-time buyers, professionals or downsizers.
The apartment is modest in size (around 495 sq ft) with an open living/dining room, fitted kitchen, double bedroom and shower room. Interiors are tidy but basic and will suit buyers prepared to carry out light cosmetic updating rather than a full refurbishment. The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and is of straightforward cavity-wall construction.
Leasehold information is favourable: a very long lease (around 965 years) and a low annual ground rent (£87), which also covers buildings insurance and gardening. Council Tax is Band A, and local amenities include a post office, library, doctors’ surgery and several good schools; Durham city centre is roughly three miles away with easy road links to the A690 and A1(M).
This property presents clear buy-to-let potential or an accessible entry point to the housing market. Its main limitations are the compact footprint and basic finish — ideal for a buyer seeking a practical, low-maintenance base or an investment that may benefit from modest modernisation.
