Set on a quiet cul-de-sac just outside Bowburn village, this substantially extended three-bedroom house offers practical family living with clear commuter access to the A1(M) and Durham City. The ground floor provides three reception rooms — lounge, separate dining room and a bright sun room — plus a convenient shower room/WC, useful for busy mornings and muddy boots.
Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms and a generous family bathroom with shower-over-bath. The property was built in the late 1970s–early 1980s and benefits from later double glazing and gas central heating to radiators, offering straightforward, low-risk maintenance for a typical suburban home of this age.
Outdoors there are front and rear gardens, a detached single garage and a wide driveway that fits multiple cars. The plot is small, so the gardens are manageable rather than expansive — appealing if you prefer lower upkeep. Local schools are close by, including a Good-rated primary, and Durham’s independent schools are within easy reach.
Practical considerations: the house totals about 787 sq ft, so the accommodation is compact for a three-bedroom detached property; the sale is awaiting an EPC; and the local area records show above-average crime rates, which prospective buyers should factor into their decision. Overall this is a well-laid-out family property in a convenient location with scope for cosmetic updating to personalise.
