A compact Victorian mid-terrace offering 1,066 sq ft of town-centre office accommodation, sold freehold and currently specified to a modern working standard. The building benefits from UPVC double glazing, LED lighting upstairs, gas central heating and two lavatories — a practical fit-out for small businesses or immediate rental use. Parking for two vehicles is unusual for a central terrace and adds tenant convenience.
This property sits within the small business rates relief threshold, which can materially reduce occupational costs for eligible occupants. The area is well served by local amenities, public transport and good nearby schools, supporting a steady supply of local tenants and footfall for street-front commercial uses.
Buyers should note measurable local challenges: the neighbourhood records higher-than-average crime and the wider area is classified as deprived. The plot is small with no significant external landscaping, and the terrace footprint limits expansion potential. Internally the layout is subdivided into multiple rooms across two storeys and may suit businesses seeking cellular offices or investors planning a reconfiguration.
Overall this is a straightforward freehold investment or owner-occupier purchase for someone targeting central Darlington. It offers immediate occupation potential with modest landlord responsibilities, while also presenting scope for cosmetic improvement or a replan to increase rental value.
