The Bowers, Durham City, DH1

This is a rare opportunity to purchase a fabulous, fully updated city centre town house situated on this popular small family development and has a private outlook to the rear of the property.

The property was originally constructed as a 4 bedroom but is currently utilised by our clients as a 3 bedroom with an additional reception room on the first floor. The ground floor has been re-configured to create a stunning open plan lounge/dining/kitchen with bi-fold doors across the rear of the property opening up the kitchen area to the tranquil garden space. The kitchen has a stunning feature island unit and has integrated appliances. To the first floor there are two bedrooms, as previously mentioned the front bedroom with a bay window is currently utilised as a living room with a gas log burner and the other bedroom has fitted wardrobes and a refitted en suite shower room, and there is also a family bathroom. To the second floor there are two further bedrooms, the main bedroom having a wall of fitted wardrobes and a stunning refitted en suite shower room, as well as a balcony overlooking the south facing garden.

Externally the fully landscaped garden is predominantly hard landscaped for ease of maintenance with a plethora of flowering pots and a stunning water feature, all of which has external lighting to accentuate all the characteristics of the area. There is allocated parking within The Bowers, as well as a garage with electric roller door.

Offering the feeling of living in the countryside it is within only a few minutes walk of the immediate city centre as well as the bus and railway stations. The Bowers is also with easy access of a number of outstanding schools in central Durham.

All in all, a superior property within a unique city centre environment.
