Summary - 10 OAKLANDS TERRACE DARLINGTON DL3 6AX
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Chain-free two-bed terrace for first-time buyers or investors, priced for improvement.
Chain free freehold at an entry-level price
A compact Victorian mid-terrace offered chain-free and priced to reflect its potential. The house provides two double bedrooms, a well-proportioned reception room and a fitted kitchen — a straightforward layout that suits first-time buyers, couples or investors looking for a low-entry purchase in Darlington.
Location is a clear strength: Oaklands Terrace sits in the popular Denes area within walking distance of shops, schools and transport links, including easy access to the A1(M) and Darlington station. The property is double glazed and sits on freehold tenure, with very low council tax running costs.
Buyers should be aware of material drawbacks. The main heating is electric storage heaters (a previous note lists gas central heating elsewhere), which can be costly; the property likely has solid brick walls with no cavity insulation and may benefit from energy upgrades. The plot is very small with a compact enclosed rear yard only. The area records above-average crime and is in a very deprived ward, so suitability depends on the buyer’s priorities.
Overall this mid-terrace suits someone seeking a budget-friendly, chain-free home to move into quickly or update over time. At the listed price it presents a realistic opportunity to secure a period terraced property close to local amenities, with clear scope for energy and cosmetic improvements to add value.
