Summary - 1 The Willows, Carrville DH1 1BP
4 bed 2 bath Detached Bungalow
Generous single‑storey living with double garage, large plot and no onward chain.
Large detached dormer bungalow with 4 bedrooms and 4 reception rooms
This substantial four-bedroom dormer bungalow sits on a generous plot in The Willows, Carrville — about two miles from Durham city centre and with quick access to the A1(M) and A690. The ground floor offers flexible living with a formal lounge, dining room, conservatory, garden room and a further reception that can serve as a ground-floor bedroom. A fitted kitchen, large utility and useful cloakroom complete the practical layout. The first-floor includes a large master suite, additional bedroom with Velux windows and generous storage/loft access.
Practical strengths include an integral double garage with remote door, tarmac driveway for three cars, landscaped low-maintenance gardens, gas central heating from a recently installed combi boiler, hardwood double glazing and a security alarm. At around 2,046 sq ft overall, the bungalow provides unusually spacious single-storey living with extra first-floor accommodation — attractive for downsizers who still want generous room proportions or families wanting ground-floor bedrooms.
Known negatives are presented plainly: council tax is described as expensive and the double glazing is older (installed before 2002). While the property is well maintained and largely neutral in decoration, some buyers may want cosmetic modernisation to suit contemporary tastes. The EPC is C. The sale is offered freehold and with no onward chain, which supports a straightforward purchase timetable.
Internal inspection is recommended to appreciate the scale and flexibility of accommodation and to confirm any desired modernisation or upgrade works. The location benefits from nearby schools, local amenities and good transport links, making this a practical choice for buyers seeking roomy, low-maintenance living close to Durham.
