5 bedroom detached house for sale

We are thrilled to present this impressive and deceptively spacious detached family residence, tucked away in a peaceful cul-de-sac just off Potters Bank in Durham City.

Designed with versatility in mind, the property offers a highly adaptable layout that will suit a wide range of buyers. Spread across three floors, the home features five/six bedrooms, four reception rooms, and a conservatory. The accommodation comprises: welcoming entrance hall with storage, inner hallway with stairs to both upper and lower levels, and a bright dual-aspect lounge with feature fireplace, connecting to a dining room with side windows and sliding doors leading into the conservatory, which opens out to the garden.

The ground floor also includes a generous study, a recently updated kitchen fitted with modern wall and base units, granite worktops, breakfast bar, integrated appliances, gas hob with extractor, electric double oven, and inset sink. Adjacent is a useful utility room with space and plumbing for laundry appliances and a door to the garden, plus a cloakroom with WC and wash hand basin. Three bedrooms are located at this level, including a dual-aspect principal bedroom with en-suite shower room featuring a contemporary suite with walk-in shower. A family bathroom with bath and overhead shower completes the ground floor.

On the first floor, there is a charming sitting room with a square bay window, along with an additional bedroom featuring two Velux roof lights. The lower ground floor provides two further bedrooms, one benefiting from a storage cupboard.

Set within a generous plot, the property enjoys gardens to the front, side, and rear. The outdoor space is predominantly low-maintenance with mature planting and borders, while the rear garden offers a particularly private haven thanks to established hedging and fencing. A large driveway and double garage with electric door, power, lighting, and rear garden access provide excellent parking and storage.
