Set on desirable Wellington Road in Barnard Castle, this detached four-bedroom home offers spacious family living across an average-to-large plot. The ground floor delivers three reception rooms including a bay-fronted living room and bright garden room, plus a large kitchen-diner and useful utility/boot room. Upstairs there are four double bedrooms, an en-suite to the master and a family bathroom — a flexible layout for family daily life.
Outside, established front and rear gardens and a gravel driveway for up to three vehicles create low-maintenance outdoor space and strong kerb appeal. The plot offers scope for further landscaping or extending the driveway if required. The property is offered freehold and chain free, allowing a quicker move for buyers.
Practical details: gas central heating, double glazing fitted after 2002, and mains services connected. The house dates from the late 1960s–1970s so some areas, particularly the kitchen and bathrooms, present good potential for modernization to increase comfort and value. Broadband speeds are slow in the area — factor this in if remote working is essential.
Positioned close to Barnard Castle’s amenities, good primary and secondary schools, and with straightforward road links to Darlington, Bishop Auckland and the A1(M), this home suits families seeking roomy accommodation in a very low-crime, affluent small-town setting. Council tax sits above average (Band E), reflecting local council charges.
