Set on a quiet Oakwood Drive in comfortable suburban Darlington, this well-presented four-bedroom detached home suits a growing family seeking ready-to-move-in accommodation. The ground floor offers a formal lounge with bay window, a dining room opening to a conservatory, a modern kitchen with granite worktops and breakfast bar, plus a utility and cloakroom for everyday practicality. Upstairs there are four bedrooms, an en-suite to the principal bedroom and a family bathroom—three bathrooms in total help ease busy mornings.
Outside, a generous driveway and double garage provide substantial off-street parking and storage. The rear garden combines lawn and patio for family play and entertaining; gated side access improves practicality. The property was built in the late 1990s/early 2000s, benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating and an EPC rating of C.
Practical points to note: the house’s overall internal size is relatively small (about 845 sq ft) compared with some four-bedroom homes, so rooms feel compact rather than expansive. Council Tax sits in Band E, which is above average for the area. While presentation is strong, buyers seeking large living volumes or a period character property should be aware of the build era and footprint. Broadband and mobile coverage are good and the area is very low crime and affluent, with several ‘Good’ and one ‘Outstanding’ nearby school.
This home offers straightforward family living with useful storage and parking, low local crime and pleasant suburban surroundings. It will appeal to buyers wanting a tidy, modern house requiring little immediate work, while also presenting scope to reconfigure or update interiors later if more space or style changes are desired.
