Quietly arranged at the end of a pleasant cul-de-sac in Gilesgate, this two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow offers single-storey living with vacant possession and no onward chain. The property is well presented with neutral decoration, newly replaced carpets in the hallway, lounge and bedrooms, and benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and a detached garage with block-paved driveway.
Outside, mature front and rear gardens, a patio, potting shed and small summer house provide private outdoor space and curb appeal. The bungalow is compact (approximately 532 sq ft) and best suited to buyers looking to downsize or seeking a low-maintenance home close to local shops, schools and good commuter links into Durham city centre.
Important practical points: the sale is a probate sale and the tenure is long leasehold (lease expiring 01/08/2962) with a modest ground rent. The property sits within a former coal mining reporting area so further searches may be required, and the garage window is single-glazed. A purchaser should commission a chartered survey to confirm building condition and any other matters of material importance.
Overall this bungalow delivers straightforward, turn-key accommodation with garden, parking and strong local amenities. It will appeal to downsizers or buyers seeking a compact, well-located home with potential to personalise rather than a full renovation project.
