Summary - 23 YARM ROAD DARLINGTON DL1 1DZ
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Large two-bedroom opportunity near station for hands-on investors or renovators.
Freehold, chain-free mid-terrace with bay-fronted Victorian facade
A large two-bedroom mid-terrace with period bay frontage and practical room layout, offered chain-free and freehold. The property sits close to Darlington town centre and the main train station, giving strong commuter appeal and easy access to local amenities. Broadband and mobile connectivity are good, supporting rental or home-working needs.
Internally the house offers two double bedrooms, three ground-floor reception rooms and a useful rear breakfast area and kitchen. The layout is flexible for a family or landlord seeking rental income; the substantial floor area (around 1,011 sq ft) is a standout for the price band. Council Tax Band A keeps running costs low and there is no flood risk.
Significant renovation is required to modernise heating, insulation and interior finishes. The solid brick walls likely lack cavity insulation, and double glazing installation dates are unknown — treat thermal performance and running costs as areas to address. The property has dated fittings and carpets and will need investment to reach contemporary rental or owner-occupied standards.
Buyers should note the wider area has elevated crime and high deprivation, which affects tenant demand and resale value; this reduces risk for opportunistic investors seeking higher yields, but may deter some owner-occupiers. A public notice records that an offer has been lodged on the property, so interested parties should act promptly. Viewing is recommended to assess condition and scope for upgrading.
