About
This appealing three-bedroom detached home is set on a generous corner plot and enjoys impressive open views to the rear, presenting significant scope for further development, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
Located within the ever-popular Newton Hall estate on the outskirts of Durham City, and within easy reach of the Arnison Centre, the property offers an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking a refurbishment project or the chance to create a tailored family home.
Occupying a prominent position, the property benefits from delightful rooftop views extending towards the iconic Penshaw Monument.
Internally, the accommodation is currently undergoing a programme of modernisation and offers a well-proportioned layout, including an entrance porch leading into a welcoming hallway, a spacious open-plan lounge and dining room, a kitchen which is yet to be fully installed, and a useful utility room.
To the first floor, there are three bedrooms served by a shower room with WC.
Externally, the property features an extensive driveway providing off-road parking for up to five vehicles, leading to a garage fitted with an electrically operated remote-controlled door.
There is a front garden, a good-sized enclosed rear garden, and additional garden space to the side, offering further potential for parking, ideal for a caravan or motorhome.
Recent improvements carried out in 2024 include the installation of a new gas combi boiler heating system including piping and radiators, replacement of the flat roof to the front of the property, removal of the former air ducted heating system along with associated vents and roof fittings, and the installation of new UPVC double-glazed windows to the front elevation.
Presently there are some works being carried out on the property, for further details please contact the sales team.
Auckland Road, positioned on the edge of the sought-after Newton Hall estate, is widely regarded as one of Durham's most desirable residential locations.
Early viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate the property's potential, outlook, and prime setting.
