Summary - Grange Road, Darlington DL1 5NP
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Chain-free two-bed with private garden, close to town and parks.
Extremely large 1,388 ft² basement garden apartment
A very large basement garden apartment in Darlington’s West End, offered chain free and with a private entrance. At approximately 1,388 ft² this two-bedroom home gives unusually generous room sizes for an apartment, including a large lounge and a long dining kitchen, set within mature communal grounds and its own garden — ideal for dog owners or anyone wanting outside space close to town.
The building dates from the early 20th century and retains period character, double glazing and gas central heating. Practical running costs are modest: EPC C, Council Tax Band A and fast broadband are all in place. The lease has around 100 years remaining, and ground rent is recorded at £10.
Buyers should note material points plainly: the apartment is a basement-level property so light will be lower than a typical ground-floor flat, and some descriptions and images indicate older fittings and potential damp in places. The construction is solid brick with assumed lack of wall insulation, so upgrading thermal performance or modernising finishes could be required.
This home suits a first-time buyer or investor looking for a sizeable apartment with outside space and good connectivity to Darlington town centre and the railway. It offers clear potential: cosmetic improvements, insulation upgrades and damp checks would enhance comfort, energy performance and future resale value. Viewing is recommended to assess light, layout and any remedial work needed.
