This substantial mid‑Victorian townhouse combines generous living space with striking period detail, refurbished throughout to a high standard. Set over basement, ground, first and second floors, the house delivers four double bedrooms, four bathrooms and a large kitchen-dining room with bi-fold doors onto a low‑maintenance rear garden. The recently refurbished cellar provides practical utility and storage space. Chain free and ready to occupy, it suits an established family seeking character with modern conveniences.
Positioned directly opposite Stanhope Park, the house benefits from leafy outlooks while remaining in Darlington’s central area with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The property retains original features — high ceilings, bay windows, fireplaces and cornices — paired with contemporary fixtures and gas central heating. Multiple reception rooms and bathrooms give flexibility for family living or potential let/part‑let layouts (subject to consent).
Buyers should note a few material points: the property sits in an area with higher crime and marked deprivation, the plot and rear garden are small, and the solid brick walls likely lack insulation. The EPC rating is E and council tax is band D. While fully modernised internally, the building’s period fabric may require ongoing maintenance typical of older terraces.
Overall this is a large, characterful family home in a desirable park‑front location, offered chain free and finished to a high internal standard. It will particularly appeal to buyers who prioritise space, period charm and a ready‑to‑move‑into property close to schools and local amenities.
