Light, single-level living is at the heart of this well-presented two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow in Haughton, Darlington. Offered freehold and with no onward chain, the property suits buyers seeking an easy-to-manage home with off-street parking, a detached garage and small, low-maintenance gardens. Solar panels and an EPC B rating help reduce running costs.
Internally the layout is practical: a bright lounge, fitted kitchen with garden access, two bedrooms and a bathroom. The loft is fully boarded, providing useful extra storage. The bungalow dates from the 1950s and benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and modern finishes such as wooden flooring and recessed lighting.
Important considerations: the overall floor area is small (505 sq ft) so space is limited compared with larger houses. The property sits in an area with high recorded crime rates and high deprivation in the wider locality — buyers sensitive to neighbourhood statistics should take this into account. The rear garden and exterior are tidy but will benefit from updating to maximise kerb appeal and outside enjoyment.
This home will appeal to downsizers, first-time buyers or investors looking for a compact, low-maintenance long-term let. Its quiet cul-de-sac location, nearby good schools and fast broadband make it practical for everyday life, while the no-chain sale and energy-saving solar panels add immediate value.
