Summary - Dunelm, Durham Road, East Rainton DH5 9QT
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Chain free and immediate availability
This chain-free semi-detached home sits on Durham Road in East Rainton and benefits from open views over the rear garden. The ground floor has an open-plan feel with living and dining areas flowing from the entrance hall, supported by a kitchen, utility room and a small modern conservatory that brings extra light. Two double bedrooms and a family bathroom occupy the first floor, making the property practical for a small family or couple.
Built between 1930–1949, the house has mains gas central heating, cavity-filled walls and double glazing installed before 2002. The plot includes a low-maintenance enclosed front garden, a decent-sized rear garden and off-street parking via a driveway; there is also access to a basement from the garden. The property is an average overall size (approx. 808 sq ft) with standard ceiling heights and presents scope for updates to suit modern tastes.
Location-wise, East Rainton offers village amenities, good local primary schools and fast broadband — useful for home working. The area is mixed in socio-economic character and records average crime levels, reflecting a small-town, town-fringe setting rather than an urban centre. Buyers should note the age of the glazing and typical mid-20th-century construction when considering future maintenance or improvement plans.
This home is best suited to buyers seeking a ready-to-live-in house with immediate availability and potential to add value through tasteful modernisation. A pre-purchase inspection is recommended, particularly if you intend to update windows, services or the basement space.
