Situated in a particularly pleasant position with an open aspect to the rear, this impressive three-bedroom home forms part of a modern and highly desirable development, just a short walk from Durham City centre.
Constructed by Charles Church in 2020, the property has been thoughtfully enhanced by the current owners, including the addition of a stylish conservatory and glass veranda.
The accommodation briefly comprises a welcoming entrance hallway leading to a bright and comfortable lounge with a front-facing window. An inner hallway provides access to a convenient ground floor cloakroom and staircase to the first floor. To the rear, the property opens into a superb open-plan kitchen and dining area, fitted with a contemporary range of wall and base units, integrated appliances (including fridge freezer, dishwasher, and washing machine), inset sink, hob with extractor, and separate electric oven. French doors lead seamlessly into the high-quality solar glass conservatory—designed to retain warmth in winter while reflecting heat in summer—offering an ideal additional reception space with further French doors opening onto the garden.
To the first floor, a generous landing with built-in storage leads to the principal bedroom, which benefits from fitted wardrobes, an en suite shower room, and French doors opening onto a private balcony—perfect for enjoying the peaceful surroundings. There are two further well-proportioned bedrooms and a modern family bathroom comprising a panelled bath, wash hand basin, and WC.
Externally, the property continues to impress. To the front, there is a small lawned garden alongside a driveway providing off-street parking for two vehicles and access to a garage with roller door, power, and lighting. The rear garden has been professionally landscaped to create a truly attractive and private outdoor space, featuring a patio area, tiered levels with timber sleepers, gravelled sections, a pond, and well-stocked planting beds. A glass veranda provides a covered seating area, while the garden enjoys a high degree of privacy, backing onto a beautiful open area of wildflowers.
