The layout includes a generous lounge, separate dining room, kitchen, utility and ground-floor WC, with three well-proportioned bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs. Outside there are front and rear gardens, a driveway and a remote‑operated single garage.
The property will be sold at auction with no upper chain, freehold tenure and a recommended completion period of 56 days. Bidders should note a Buyer Information Pack fee of £349 and a non-refundable Reservation Fee of 4.5% of the purchase price (minimum £6,600).

This location is a strong asset: Gilesgate provides easy walking access into Durham city, local shops, pubs and schools, plus good links to the train station and A690 for commuting. For buyers seeking renovation scope in a very affluent, low-crime neighbourhood, this house presents value — but allow budget for modernisation, improved energy efficiency and any recommended electrical or heating works.
