Compact new-build home with garden, garage and customization options.
Detached three-bedroom home with en-suite to master
Bright, modern and practical, this three-bedroom detached Strade offers a compact family home on the edge of Bearpark. The ground floor opens to a living room and a contemporary kitchen-diner with French doors to a private rear garden — useful for safe outdoor play and summer entertaining. The main bedroom benefits from an en-suite, plus two further bedrooms and a family bathroom upstairs.
The plot includes an integral garage and front garden with neat landscaping. High-quality fixtures and fittings are included from reputable brands, and a kitchen upgrade worth £1,900 is provided. Buyers are offered £3,000 towards optional extras (terms apply) and personalization choices while builds remain at the appropriate stage. A 10-year warranty covers the new build (first 2 years with developer, then 8 years with NHBC).
Practical considerations: the home is a small overall size (769 sq ft) with a linear layout — suitable for buyers wanting manageable living rather than extensive space. Local broadband is reported slow and the immediate area records above-average crime, factors to weigh against the otherwise affluent, village-edge location close to Bearpark Woods and two-mile access to Durham city centre. Council tax band and EPC potential energy rating are to be confirmed.
This property will suit first-family buyers or those downsizing who prioritise low-maintenance new construction, nearby primary schools, and easy access to countryside amenities while still being within commuting distance of Durham.
