Summary - KIRKLEE HOUSE 12 VICTORIA ROAD DARLINGTON DL1 5NF
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Secure underground parking and lift access in the heart of town.
Large open-plan living room with Juliet balcony
This centrally located two‑bed apartment on Victoria Road offers easy town‑centre living with practical modern finishes. A large open‑plan reception room with a Juliet balcony creates a bright social space, while the master bedroom benefits from an ensuite and there is a separate family bathroom. Underground allocated parking and an internally accessed lift add daily convenience for commuters or first‑time buyers moving into town.
The building was constructed in 2014 and the flat is leasehold with 115 years remaining. Annual costs include a service charge of around £2,300 and a ground rent of approximately £325. The property is heated by electric storage heaters and has double glazing; prospective buyers should note the main fuel is electricity rather than gas.
Location is a major strength: shops, restaurants, bars and public transport are within walking distance, and several well‑rated schools lie close by. That central position also means limited external space and no private garden. The neighbourhood shows higher crime levels and wider area deprivation indicators, which may concern some buyers and could affect lettability and resale expectations.
This apartment will suit a buyer seeking a move‑in city base or a buy‑to‑let investor after easy access and secure parking. It offers straightforward, modern accommodation with predictable running costs and clear factors to consider — service charges, electric heating, and local area conditions — so an internal inspection is recommended to confirm suitability.
