This three-bedroom semi-detached home on Cobden Street offers a comfortable family layout with two reception rooms, a practical kitchen, and off-street parking for one car. Period details—including high ceilings, an original fireplace and picture rails—give the house character while the rear patio and artificial lawn provide a low-maintenance outdoor space for children and pets.
Situated in the Eastbourne area of Darlington, the property is close to shops, travel links and several well-rated primary and secondary schools, making daily life straightforward for families. Fast broadband availability and sensible room sizes across roughly 1,151 sq ft support both home working and family living. The home is offered freehold and chain-free, simplifying purchase timelines.
There are some material points to note: the house is an early 20th-century solid brick build with assumed no wall insulation, and it currently carries an EPC D rating. The plot is small and the garden modest, so outdoor space is limited compared with larger suburban homes. The property may benefit from targeted energy-efficiency upgrades and cosmetic updating to maximise long-term running costs and value.
Overall, this is a well-located, characterful family home that will suit buyers seeking an immediately liveable house with scope to personalise and improve energy performance. Its combination of period charm, practical layout and low-maintenance garden makes it particularly suitable for growing families or investors seeking reliable rental demand in Darlington.
