Stunning Five-Bedroom Period Property For Sale

This distinguished five-bedroom property presents a rare opportunity to have a home of considerable scale and character, thoughtfully arranged over four spacious floors. While the property does require some modernisation, its period features, spacious rooms and flexible layout prove it has so much potential.

The ground floor has a welcoming entrance hall leading to two reception rooms boasting original features such as the fireplaces and window shutters. Both reception rooms are large and have pleasant bay windows, one overlooking the private garden and one to the front of the house.

The lower ground floor is equipped for day-to-day living and entertaining. A spacious kitchen/dining room opens through to a substantial snug area which is ideal for hosting or watching the children play whilst preparing dinner. This level also features a generous utility room, guest WC, lots of storage, and access to the garden. The utility room is a great space and has access to the old coal cellar. With a little bit of work, this could be made into further storage.

On the first floor, there are two large double bedrooms. Both rooms enjoy generous dimensions and have feature fireplaces in keeping with the property’s period charm. The bedroom to the rear of the property also has a beautiful bay window, offering views over the private garden. A family bathroom and separate WC can also be found on this level.

The second floor comprises three additional bedrooms. Originally two bedrooms, the family converted this space to make room for an additional bedroom in the 1970s. Two of the bedrooms can comfortably fit double beds, while the third is a great space for a single bedroom, office space or nursery.

The garden is a wraparound ‘L’ shape, meaning that you can enjoy the sun throughout the day. To the rear of the property there is an old air raid shelter which has all the potential to be a stunning outhouse. Meanwhile, to the side of the property, the garden has a variety of trees, including walnut, hazelnut, stunning silver birches and apple trees. To the side of the property, there is a sizable garage which has previously been used as a workshop and storage space. This garage is equipped with electricity and can fit one car. Aside from parking in the garage, there is room to fit one car on the drive.

Situated at the top of one of Durham’s most desired streets, this property has been in the same family for decades and while it has been well-loved, it is ready for a new family to enjoy. Albert Street is very central in Durham and there are lots of local amenities nearby. Shops, restaurants and pubs are just a short walk away and the train station is at the bottom of the hill.

Properties such as this are rare to the market so do not miss the opportunity to make this your forever home. Call us today.
