Description

Perfectly located within walking distance of respected local primary schools and the highly regarded Hummersknott Academy, this home combines educational excellence with everyday convenience. Residents will also enjoy easy access to a variety of amenities, including nearby Cockerton Village, Darlington town centre, and a wide selection of shops, cafés, restaurants, and leisure facilities.

While the property is in good order, it would benefit from some updating and modernisation-presenting the perfect canvas for a growing family to create their ideal home.

Step inside and you'll find a welcoming entrance hallway that leads into a spacious and light-filled open-plan lounge and dining room. Bathed in natural light from both front and rear aspects, this versatile space is perfect for everything from cosy evenings to family gatherings and celebrations. The adjoining kitchen has been thoughtfully extended into the former garage space, creating a more expansive cooking and casual dining area, while still offering scope for modernisation to truly make it your own.

Upstairs, there are three well-proportioned bedrooms - each enjoying pleasant outlooks - and a family bathroom that, while functional, would benefit from updating, offering the opportunity to add your own personal touch.

Outside, the rear garden offers a private and secure space for children to play or for keen gardeners to enjoy. The front garden, coupled with a sloped driveway, provides off-street parking, and the remaining garage space offers additional storage or potential for further conversion (subject to planning consents).

Whether you're looking to upsize, invest in a family home with potential, or simply move into a sought-after location, this property ticks all the boxes. With its excellent location close to Cockerton Village, local amenities, and Darlington town centre - as well as being offered with no onward chain - this home is not to be missed.

A perfect place to greet guests, the hallway also offers potential for added storage or decorative touches to enhance its charm. 

LOUNGE / DINING ROOM This generously proportioned open-plan lounge and dining area is filled with natural light, thanks to a large UPVC-framed double-glazed window to the front aspect and matching double-glazed patio doors to the rear, which open out to the garden.

With its bright and airy feel, this room forms the heart of the home - ideal for everyday living and special occasions alike. 

KITCHEN The kitchen is fitted with a range of matching base and wall units, complemented by laminate work surfaces that provide ample preparation space. An inset stainless steel sink unit with drainer sits beneath a UPVC-framed double-glazed window, offering a pleasant outlook over the rear garden. The kitchen also features an integrated oven and hob, plumbing for an automatic washing machine, and designated space for a freestanding fridge freezer. A UPVC-framed double-glazed door provides direct access to the rear garden, making this a practical and functional space for everyday use, with excellent potential for modernisation.
