Period Semi-Detached Family Home in a Highly Sought-After Location

Situated in the ever-popular Whitesmocks area, this attractive period semi-detached family home occupies a desirable position within easy reach of highly regarded schools, the University Hospital of North Durham, Durham Train Station, and excellent commuter links via the A167.

Although the property would benefit from some modernisation, it retains many of the charming features associated with homes of this era, including bay windows, an attractive arched porch, generously proportioned rooms, and high ceilings.

Traditionally popular with a wide range of buyers, Whitesmocks offers the perfect balance of convenience and community, making it an ideal location for families, professionals, and commuters alike.

The accommodation is accessed via an enclosed porch leading into a welcoming entrance hall, with a useful ground floor WC beneath the stairs. The spacious bay-fronted lounge enjoys plenty of natural light, while the separate dining room features double doors opening onto the rear garden, creating an ideal space for family living and entertaining. The ground floor is completed by a fitted kitchen and a rear porch.

To the first floor are two generous double bedrooms, both benefiting from fitted or built-in wardrobes, a third single bedroom, and a family bathroom.

Externally, the property enjoys a mature front garden with established trees and hedgerows, together with a driveway providing off-street parking for two vehicles and access to a detached garage. To the rear is a private, enclosed garden laid mainly to lawn with mature planted borders, offering an attractive outdoor space to enjoy.

Sniperley Grove is a pleasant and highly sought-after residential street comprising traditional-style homes on the outskirts of Durham City Centre. Residents benefit from an excellent range of shopping, leisure and recreational amenities nearby, while the property's convenient location provides superb access to the local road network, making commuting to Durham and surrounding regional centres straightforward.
