This detached family home is located on a spacious plot within the sought-after Sands estate, boasting a desirable cul-de-sac setting with scenic rear views. While it requires some modernisation, this property presents a significant opportunity for buyers eager to transform it into an exceptional family residence. The home’s convenient proximity to the historic City Centre and picturesque riverside walks along the River Wear adds to its charm.
Arranged over three levels, the property features a welcoming entrance porch that leads into a hallway. The expansive lounge seamlessly connects to a separate dining room, both adorned with large picture windows that allow ample natural light. A side conservatory offers views of the gardens and is accessible through double doors at the front.
The kitchen comes fitted, accompanied by a separate utility area and a practical ground-floor WC. Moving to the first floor, two substantial double bedrooms with built-in cupboards are complemented by an additional single bedroom and a contemporary family bathroom featuring a white suite with a shower over the bath.
The basement serves as versatile additional living space; currently utilized as an office, its generous size invites potential for various uses—such as a garden room, home cinema, or playroom—subject to necessary permissions. It also includes another bathroom and separate WC.
Outside, you'll find a block-paved driveway leading to an attached garage alongside attractive wraparound terraced gardens filled with mature shrubs and trees, featuring patio areas perfect for relaxation while enjoying views towards the River Wear.
This property holds immense potential for renovation in one of Durham's most popular residential areas where access to local amenities is easily obtained. Commuters will appreciate its proximity to major road links facilitating travel across the region.
