Set in a quiet cul‑de‑sac in Darlington’s west end, this ground‑floor apartment offers low‑maintenance living with immediate move‑in readiness. The recently refitted kitchen with integrated appliances and a bright living room create a comfortable, modern home for downsizers or those seeking a compact, practical base. Two well‑proportioned bedrooms and one bathroom suit a couple or single occupant wanting easy access to local shops and town centre amenities.
Outside, residents benefit from west‑facing communal gardens for afternoon sun plus a driveway and single electric garage, a strong practical plus in a town setting. The building is a purpose‑built block by Bussey & Armstrong with double glazing and gas central heating; the long lease (962 years) removes typical leasehold timing concerns.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold apartment with an average annual service charge of around £1,400. The building’s cavity walls were constructed in the early 1900s and may lack modern cavity insulation, so additional insulation work could be considered to improve energy efficiency. There is a single bathroom, so households needing multiple bathrooms should consider layout limitations.
Overall, the property combines recent internal updates and secure parking with low‑maintenance communal grounds and a desirable location within walking distance of Mowden shopping and local schools. It’s particularly suited to downsizers or buyers seeking a ready‑to‑move‑into apartment with long lease security and easy access to Darlington town centre.
