Clements Wharf, Back Silver Street, Durham City, DH1

Currently let to two students and generating a rental income of £1,655 per month, this well-presented two-bedroom top floor apartment offers an attractive investment opportunity in a sought-after Durham City location, complete with pleasant river views.

Accessed via a secure intercom entry system, the development benefits from both stairs and lift access to all floors. The apartment itself opens into a private entrance hallway with a useful storage cupboard.

The open-plan lounge/dining area is bright and well proportioned, featuring a square bay window to the side and a rear window enjoying views over the river. The high-quality kitchen is fitted with a modern range of floor and wall units, granite worktops, an electric hob with extractor over, separate electric oven, integrated fridge, freezer, washing machine and dishwasher, along with a breakfast bar positioned to take advantage of the river outlook.
