This well-presented two-bedroom first-floor flat sits in a sought-after West End area of Darlington, set within a tidy brick-built block and facing landscaped communal gardens. The reception room is bright and opens onto a tiled balcony, providing outdoor space for morning coffee or evening relaxation. The layout includes a practical kitchen with integrated appliances, two bedrooms with fitted storage, and a bathroom with shower-over-bath. EPC C and gas central heating via boiler and radiators offer reasonable running costs.
The location suits first-time buyers and downsizers: local primary and secondary schools (including an Outstanding college) are within easy reach, plus regular amenities and low local crime. A designated off-street parking space and communal lawns give a feeling of space despite the apartment setting. Broadband and mobile coverage are average; superfast options are available in the area.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold (long lease remaining), council tax Band D, and sits in a development constructed c.1996–2002 with double glazing predating 2002. The block and communal grounds appear well maintained, though buyers should note that this is a shared scheme with communal responsibilities and typical service charges. Measurements and services have not been independently tested and should be confirmed at survey.
Overall, this is a straightforward, comfortably maintained two-bedroom home in a quiet residential pocket close to schools and local services. It offers immediate move-in potential with scope to personalise the interior, making it a sensible purchase for those seeking an accessible town base or a lower-maintenance step down from a house.
