Ideal family base near top schools and Durham city centre.
Extended open-plan kitchen, dining and garden room with French doors
This well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached house on Westcott Drive offers a practical family layout with an extended open-plan living, kitchen and dining area that opens via French doors to the rear decked patio. The lounge features a bay window and a wood-burning stove, creating a comfortable living space for family life. An attached single garage and driveway provide convenient off-street parking, and the rear and front gardens offer low-maintenance outdoor space for children and pets.
The property sits in a popular residential neighbourhood within easy reach of Durham city centre, strong local schools and key employers such as the nearby hospital and business district. Built in the post-war period with cavity-filled brick walls and uPVC double glazing, the home benefits from mains gas central heating via boiler and radiators and is sold freehold. Broadband and mobile coverage are good to excellent, supporting home working and study.
Practical considerations are straightforward: there is a single family bathroom and a ground-floor WC only, and the EPC rating is pending. The double glazing install date is not recorded, and some buyers may wish to check window and boiler service histories. Overall, this mid-20th-century house presents a tidy, ready-to-live-in family opportunity with scope to personalise and update where desired.
Early viewing is advised for families seeking proximity to top-rated primary schools, easy commuting routes and a comfortable, flexible living space close to Durham city amenities.
