Description

This mid-terrace property presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment, featuring two spacious reception rooms and two double bedrooms. The layout includes a functional galley kitchen and a ground floor shower room/WC, providing immediate utility while also allowing for future improvements. Notably, the rear bedroom has the potential to be transformed into an ensuite space by re-establishing the original bathroom setup. Although the property would benefit from modernization, it is currently in a clean and tidy condition, making it ready for comfortable living while you plan your updates. The home is equipped with gas central heating and double glazing, which adds to its efficiency and appeal. Located in the Harrowgate Hill area of Darlington, this property offers convenient access to a variety of local amenities, including supermarkets, schools, and public transportation options. Regular bus services enhance connectivity to the town centre and major routes such as Teesside and the A1M, increasing its attractiveness for potential renters or future buyers. The entrance vestibule leads into a welcoming hallway that connects to both the lounge—with its charming bay window and gas fire—and a generously sized dining room that features French doors opening onto the rear courtyard. The kitchen is fitted with wood effect cabinets and essential appliances, providing a functional space that could be further enhanced with modern updates. On the first floor, two well-proportioned double bedrooms await. The master bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and has an existing cast fireplace that could become a focal point with some restoration. The second bedroom not only offers ample space but also includes an additional room where an ensuite or office could easily be created—a valuable feature in today’s market. Externally, the property features a forecourt enclosed by brick walls for added privacy, along with a paved rear courtyard complete with storage shed. This outdoor area presents opportunities for landscaping or creating an inviting outdoor space. With its layout flexibility and prime location, this property stands out as an excellent investment opportunity for those looking to make their mark through renovation while reaping the benefits of a thriving community.
