Pentland Grove, Darlington

An exciting opportunity has arisen to purchase this FOUR BEDROOM DETACHED family home, ideally positioned on a large plot in the sought after Hummersknott estate in the West End of Darlington. Available with NO ONWARD CHAIN.

The property, built by well-known, local builders, Bussey and Armstrong in the late 1960s, has been a well-loved family home for a number of years. It comprises a light and spacious lounge/dining room with UPVC French windows leading out onto a decked area which looks over a private garden, securely fenced off from the attractive, council-managed woodland at the back of the house. It has a large kitchen, four good-sized bedrooms, a recently fitted, modern shower room, downstairs WC and a garage. There is a glazed porch at the front of the house which looks out onto the attractive front.

Double glazed throughout and efficiently heated by gas central heating, the property has just been completely rewired. As a result, attention will be required to the decor and fittings, but overall the property is well maintained and viewing is highly encouraged to fully understand the accommodation and potential to improve the home.

Pentland Grove is a quiet cul-de-sac, accessed from Holyrood Avenue. There are steps at the end of the grove, which lead to a large green space, opposite the well regarded Hummersknott Secondary School (judged ‘good’ by OFSTED at its last inspection). It is within the catchment area for two popular primary schools; Abbey Road and Mowden. It is a 10 minute walk to a parade of shops, which includes a small supermarket and a post office. There are regular bus services to Darlington’s town centre and a well-marked cycle route. There are excellent transport links to the A1M, A68 and A66, as well as rail links to London, Leeds and Edinburgh via the East Coast Main Line.
