Around 2,000 sq ft of single-storey living space
This substantial detached bungalow delivers true single-storey living across about 2,000 sq ft. Four bedrooms and three bathrooms give flexible space for family life, multigenerational living or home working; the principal bedroom can accommodate a full bedroom suite. Large rooms and generous circulation make the layout easy to adapt.
Set on a large plot with a private rear garden and driveway parking, the house offers outdoor privacy and practical off-street parking. The property has double glazing installed after 2002 and a gas boiler with radiators, so basic comfort is in place. Local amenities, shops and several ‘Good’ primary schools are within easy reach, while Durham’s city centre is a short drive away.
Buyers should note the location sits in an area assessed as very deprived with higher-than-average crime rates; this affects desirability and may influence insurance and resale. The house was built in the 1950s–1960s and the cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, so the home may benefit from insulation and energy-efficiency upgrades. Some updating and maintenance are likely required to modernise finishes and lower running costs.
The sale process described includes buyer vetting and an exclusivity fee and processing charge to secure purchase rights; prospective purchasers should factor these costs and conditions into their decision. Viewing is advised to assess condition, layout and potential before committing.
