This modern three-bedroom semi-detached house sits on a corner plot in a quiet, contemporary estate in Darlington. Its compact 789 sq ft layout is practical and straightforward: a well-proportioned living room, a modern open-plan kitchen/dining area with integrated appliances, a downstairs WC and three bedrooms with a single family bathroom upstairs. The plot feels larger than many on the development thanks to generous side and rear gardens and a timber shed.
The property will suit first-time buyers looking for low-running-cost ownership. It is freehold, has off-street parking, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Local retail and travel links are close by, and most nearby primary and secondary schools are rated Good; several everyday amenities — convenience stores, takeaways and a railway station — are within easy reach.
Be clear about the constraints: the house is relatively small, at under 800 sq ft, and has only one bathroom which may not suit larger families. One nearby secondary school (Longfield Academy) has an Inadequate Ofsted rating, so purchasers with older children should check school catchments. Crime is average for the area. Overall, this is a practical, affordable freehold starter home with garden space and good connectivity, best for buyers prioritising value and convenience over large living areas.
If you want a compact, low-cost entry into home ownership with outside space and parking, this house is worth viewing — but factor in the single bathroom and modest internal size when assessing family needs.
