Set just a short walk from Durham market place, this extended four-bedroom town house offers immediate family living in a modern, ready-made home. The layout features an extended kitchen/diner, a separate utility and three reception rooms that flow into a sunny south-facing rear garden. Off-street parking for two and an integral garage add practical convenience for daily life.
Bedrooms are arranged across three floors, with two double bedrooms on the first floor (one with a private balcony) and two further doubles on the second floor. Three bathrooms and useful storage spaces suit busy family routines. The property is freehold and presented in move-in condition, minimising short-term work or disruption.
Location strengths include rapid access to the city centre, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for remote working and family connectivity. Local schools include several highly regarded primaries and independent options within easy reach.
Notable considerations: the immediate area is classified as a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood and local crime levels are high, which may affect privacy and evening tranquillity. The overall plot is small, and while the garden is south-facing and sunny, outdoor space is limited compared with larger suburban plots. Buyers seeking a quieter, larger plot should note the city-centre setting.
