Chain-free three-bedroom bungalow with large south garden, garage and driveway in sought-after DH4 location..
Three bedrooms in a single-storey detached bungalow
This detached three-bedroom bungalow sits on a generous plot in Newbottle, offering practical single-storey living for families or downsizers. The property includes a bright conservatory overlooking a private south-facing garden, a detached garage and a multiple-car driveway — useful for busy households and weekend guests. The layout is traditional and easy to adapt, with an open plan lounge/dining room and a kitchen/breakfast area.
Built in the mid-20th century, the bungalow retains period character but shows some dated elements — roof tiles and certain finishes may need updating, and double glazing install date is unknown. There is one family bathroom serving three bedrooms, which prospective buyers should consider if they need additional facilities or want to modernise.
Practical benefits include freehold ownership, no onward chain, mains gas central heating and fast broadband/mobile signal. Local schools (including a highly rated primary nearby) and good road links to Sunderland and Durham make this a sensible family location. Be aware the wider area records above-average crime and higher deprivation metrics; buyers should weigh local community factors alongside the strong plot and single-storey convenience.
