Description

FREE FIRST MONTHS RENT ON SELECTED PLOTS

Tucked within the rolling greenery of the Deerness Valley, The Oaks offers a slower pace of life surrounded by open skies, woodland walks, and the gentle rhythm of the countryside. Here in Esh Winning, you're never far from nature - yet just a short drive from the historic charm, culture, and convenience of Durham city. It's a place where you can breathe deeply, stretch out, and feel truly at home - all while staying connected to everything you need.

Whether you're enjoying morning coffee in your private garden, strolling through green valley trails, or heading into the city for work or leisure, The Oaks gives you the best of both worlds: countryside calm with urban convenience.

Inside, each home features high-spec finishes, modern kitchens and bathrooms, and spacious layouts perfect for families, couples, or downsizers. We're proudly pet-friendly too - because home isn't truly home without every member of the family.

With on-site parking, long-term tenancies, and 24/7 in-house maintenance, life at The Oaks is made easy. Our friendly resident services team is always on hand, ready to help when you need them - or just say hello.

This home is available with flatfair's No Deposit solution, so instead of a traditional deposit, you'll pay a one-off check-in fee equal to 28% of a month's rent (+VAT). It's a simple, upfront alternative that keeps moving costs down - though please note this fee is non-refundable and can't be used to cover any future damages.

About Placefirst, The Oaks

Esh Winning, Durham, DH7 9DP

PlaceFirst are property experts that think and behave like a genuine stakeholder in the areas we work in. We specialise in buying property that needs fixing, bringing it back into the 21st Century through imaginative and thoughtful design before renting it or selling it on to the right long term investment partner. We work across two main property sectors, affordable homes for private rent and heritage buildings.

As a residential developer we make renting an affordable private house simple, straightforward and above all a real alternative for modern families. We do this by providing contemporary, thoughtfully designed and energy efficient homes that have the space and features that modern families need. We provide landlord services that make our customers feel valued as tenants. We do this through first class management and maintenance services, through offering secure yet flexible tenancies and through fair value pricing that is affordable and transparent. We use thoughtful and considered approaches to architecture as well a property and neighbourhood management. This means that our homes can meet the needs of modern families who choose to live in them and our developments enhance the communities that they are situated in.

Our heritage business brings old, often listed buildings back to life as vibrant mixed use developments. We have helped to transform redundant former places of worship, old industrial buildings and even former stately homes into exciting destinations in their own right. In all cases we combine imaginative design solutions with innovative operating models that breathe new life into buildings that have in many cases sat derelict for decades. We work in a collaborative and partnering manner, often in tandem with local authorities and other public organisations and development trusts.

Renting from Placefirst is renting the way it should be. We’re landlords who think like renters, committed to providing high-quality, pet-friendly, and energy-efficient homes – everything you’re looking for.
