Summary - Carmel Road North, Darlington DL3 8JB
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Spacious ready-to-move-in flat with balcony and allocated parking.
Purpose-built retirement apartment (over-55 development)
This purpose-built second-floor apartment in Darlington’s West End is designed for over-55s seeking a low-maintenance, comfortable home. The open-plan living/dining/kitchen opens onto a balcony overlooking well-kept communal gardens, and the principal bedroom includes a dressing room and en-suite for added convenience. Allocated off-street parking and an intercom entry system add security and ease of access.
The development was completed in 2017 and the flat is presented in good, ready-to-move-in condition. Electric underfloor heating and double glazing contribute to a high energy-efficiency rating, while the layout (two double bedrooms, two bathrooms) suits downsizers who want space for visitors or hobbies.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold retirement property with a long lease remaining (991 years), an annual ground rent of about £495 and a service charge currently around £3,813.60 covering communal maintenance, gardening and cleaning. Heating is electric underfloor, which may affect running costs depending on tariff and usage. Broadband speeds are average locally.
No onward chain makes the purchase straightforward, and the very low local crime and affluent setting add appeal. This apartment will suit purchasers looking to downsize within a secure, modern development while retaining pleasant outdoor communal space and easy access to West End amenities.
