Description
Occupying a superb position within the highly sought-after village of High Shincliffe, this delightful semi-detached bungalow enjoys an attractive setting with a substantial front garden and open views across adjoining countryside to the rear. Located just over two miles from Durham City Centre and within easy reach of the A1(M), the property offers an excellent balance of village living and convenient commuter access.
Boasting generously proportioned accommodation and impressive high ceilings throughout, the property briefly comprises a welcoming entrance porch leading into a central hallway, a spacious lounge featuring a traditional fireplace and dual-aspect windows which flood the room with natural light, two well-sized double bedrooms, a modern fitted kitchen and a family bathroom/WC.
Externally, the property is set back from the road behind an extensive lawned garden with mature hedge screening, creating a good degree of privacy. A driveway provides useful off-road parking, whilst to the rear there is an enclosed paved patio garden enjoying delightful views across neighbouring agricultural land and the surrounding countryside beyond.
While the property would benefit from some cosmetic updating, this has been thoughtfully reflected in the asking price, presenting an excellent opportunity for purchasers to personalise a charming home in a highly desirable location.
High Shincliffe remains one of Durham's most favoured villages, offering a pleasant community atmosphere whilst being conveniently positioned for access to Durham City's comprehensive range of shopping, leisure and educational facilities. The nearby A177 provides direct links to the city centre and the A1(M) interchange at Bowburn, making the property particularly well placed for commuters.
Offered for sale with No Onward Chain. Freehold tenure. Gas central heating and double glazing throughout. Early viewing is highly recommended.
