This two-bedroom semi-detached home on Arnold Road offers an affordable entry into Darlington’s Eastbourne area. The current owner has carried out a programme of improvements, leaving a fresh, neutral interior, double glazing and modern boiler with radiators for reliable heating.
The ground floor provides a comfortable lounge and an extended kitchen/dining room that leads out to a deceptively large rear garden — a standout outside space for children, pets or vegetable beds. Both first-floor bedrooms are good doubles and the bathroom has a modern suite, making the layout practical for everyday family life or sharers.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, low council tax band A and fast broadband/mobile coverage. Important location considerations: the immediate neighbourhood is classed as very deprived and recorded crime levels are high, so buyers should prioritise local area visits and personal safety checks. EPC rating is D.
Suitable for first-time buyers or those upsizing from an apartment who want outdoor space and a ready-to-live-in home, this property represents value for a modest budget. Early viewing is advised to inspect the improvements and get a feel for the street and wider area.
