Set on an elevated plot in one of Durham's most sought-after residential streets, this four-bedroom detached home offers generous family accommodation, attractive front-facing views and a detached double garage. The property is chain-free and benefits from a conservatory, sizable garden and easy walking distance to Durham city centre, mainline station and highly regarded schools — features that suit busy families and professionals alike.
The layout is practical: three double bedrooms and a large bathroom on the ground floor, with a bright open-plan lounge/dining room, kitchen/breakfast room, study/dining room and a fourth bedroom on the first floor. The living room’s picture window frames the pleasant outlook, while the conservatory provides extra all-season living space that connects directly to the enclosed rear garden.
The house is well maintained but retains mid-20th-century fittings and decor. Buyers should note there is only one full bathroom (plus a first-floor WC), textured ceilings and assumed original cavity wall construction with no added wall insulation — opportunities exist to modernise heating, insulation and interior finishes to suit contemporary tastes and improve energy performance. Broadband speeds are average, and council tax banding is not provided.
With a large plot, private hedged garden and parking for multiple cars in the detached double garage, this property presents scope for extension or remodelling (subject to planning). Its proximity to transport links, the university hospital and outstanding schools makes it a strong long-term family home or a practical buy for those seeking space and future value uplift.
