This well-presented four-bedroom detached house on John Street South sits on a generous plot with a large enclosed rear garden and a substantial insulated summerhouse. The extended ground floor creates an open-plan family hub—kitchen, family room and utility—with tri-fold doors to the patio, making indoor-outdoor living easy for families and entertaining. The home benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and an EPC rating of C.
The practical layout includes a ground-floor W/C, useful utility room, and a drive with space for three cars. On the first floor are four double bedrooms, an ensuite to the principal bedroom and a family bathroom, giving flexibility for a growing family or home office use. Nearby schools include several well-regarded state and independent options, and the location offers quick access into Durham and the A690 for commuting.
Notable positives are the contemporary finish throughout, good broadband and mobile signal, and an insulated summerhouse with wired internet and multiple sockets. Consider that the glazing install date is not recorded and the property has an EPC of C; while energy performance is reasonable, there may be scope for improvement. Overall, this is a modern, low-crime, freehold family home in an affluent, town-fringe setting that will suit buyers seeking space and convenience.
