5 bed semi-detached house for sale

Oakdene Avenue, Darlington DL3

Venture Properties are delighted to offer to the market this Arts & Craft house which was built in 1906 and retains its original features some of which include, stained glass panels, decorative plasterwork and voysey-style stair spindles. The property boasts generous and well proportioned rooms with high ceilings throughout.

With no onward chain this fantastic and versatile family living space is situated over three floors.

Beautiful gardens to the front and rear with additional double-storey out building which is the old Coach House and is extremely rare to find in a town property. With a second floor that would have been a hayloft, it has fantastic potential to make an annex accommodation to the property.

Recent renovations to the property have been sympathetic to the Arts & Craft style and include full re-roof of front elevations using Rosemary tiles, breathable membrane and insulation. Overhaul of rear roof, chimney re-render and new flashings. Dorma window re-roofed. New hand made bespoke wooden framed double glazed windows to living room, main bedroom and kitchen. John Lewis Kitchen and wool carpets throughout. All lead pipework removed and replaced with copper and new incoming mains pipe. New fuse box and all electrics tested and upgraded. Jackfield tiles to utility room. Hand made picket fence and gate with Tulip detail to match porch. New rear gate.

Must be seen to be appreciated, contact our office to arrange a highly recommended viewing.
