Summary - 25 FILBY DRIVE DURHAM DH1 1LT
3 bed 2 bath Bungalow
Single-level living with generous garden and modern energy kit.
Extended three-bedroom single-storey bungalow on corner plot
A generously extended three-bedroom bungalow on a large corner plot, 25 Filby Drive blends single-level living with contemporary upgrades. The recently refurbished interior offers an open-plan kitchen-diner with 4m sliding doors and an orangery with a 4.5m roof light, both delivering strong natural light and seamless access to the south-facing rear garden.
Practical features include a block-paved driveway for three cars, electric garage door, fully boarded loft with substantial storage, utility room, and modern environmental kit — solar inverters with a 5kW battery and efficient LED lighting. The living room’s bay and French doors open to an Indian stone patio, creating a useful indoor–outdoor flow for family life and entertaining.
The house was comprehensively refurbished in 2017 and benefits from a new roof and updated systems, but it retains roots in the 1967–75 build era. The EPC is rated D and the double glazing install date is unknown, so while energy-efficiency improvements exist, further upgrades could yield savings. Council Tax band C is affordable for the area.
Located for easy commuting with fast broadband and excellent mobile reception, the property suits families or downsizers wanting single-floor living, good local schools, and a private south-facing garden. Buyers should note the mid-century construction may need future modernisation to maximise long-term efficiency.
