Description

Extended Three-Bedroom Semi-Detached Home – Sought-After Nevilles Cross Location

Beautifully presented and substantially extended to the ground floor, this superb three-bedroom semi-detached home offers stylish and versatile family living in one of Durham City's most desirable residential areas. Perfectly positioned for access to highly regarded schools, including Durham Johnston, it occupies a generous plot with attractive gardens and excellent parking.

A recently added porch leads into a welcoming hallway with useful storage. The bright and spacious lounge features a walk-in bay window and a charming fireplace recess. The highlight of the home is the stunning open-plan kitchen/dining/family room, designed as the true heart of the property. This impressive space boasts a semi-vaulted ceiling with skylights, modern fitted kitchen with a range of integrated appliances, and patio doors opening to the rear garden — all creating a light-filled, sociable space for everyday living and entertaining. A convenient ground-floor WC completes the layout.

Upstairs, the first floor offers three well-proportioned bedrooms, including two doubles and a single, with the master benefiting from a walk-in bay window. A contemporary refitted shower room adds further appeal, while a staircase leads to a versatile attic room, ideal as a home office, hobby space, or guest area.

Externally, the property features a walled front garden, driveway parking with gated side access for multiple vehicles, and a generous sunny southward facing rear garden with lawn, paved seating area, and mature borders offering privacy and a safe space for families to enjoy.

A fabulous home in a prime location — early viewing is strongly recommended.  No onward Chain
