Property description

**VACANT POSSESSION**

This extended semi-detached family home is situated in the popular village of Gilesgate, offering exceptionally well-presented accommodation with four double bedrooms and three reception rooms.

Modernised and improved by the current owner, this extended semi-detached family home sits pleasantly within a small cul-de-sac in the popular village of Gilesgate. Providing turn-key accommodation which is accessed from the front into a porch, and briefly comprises an inner hallway, a 13ft lounge with a feature fireplace and contemporary shutter to the window, there is an 18ft dining/family room, a fitted kitchen with built-in cooking appliances and a conservatory extension overlooking the rear garden. On the first floor, there are four double bedrooms and a modern shower room. To the front is a lawned garden with planted borders, a double-width block-paved driveway, and a single garage with utility space to the rear. The rear garden is fence-enclosed with multiple patio areas, lawns, and a wooden storage shed. Additionally, the property is gas centrally heated and double-glazed.

Prebendsfield is well positioned for access to everyday shops, schools etc, which are available within Gilesgate itself, with a more comprehensive range of shopping and recreational facilities and amenities available within Durham City Centre, which is approximately 2 miles distant. Gilesgate is also well placed for commuting purposes, being adjacent to the A690 Durham to Sunderland Highway, which also offers access to the A1(M) Motorway Interchange at Carrville.

Reviews of JWW Durham, the branch marketing this property.

Just completed on our first home with the Consett branch of J W Wood. Primarily worked with Dawn who is a star, always got back to us with any query we had and helped us chase solicitors when needed. Very warm and friendly lady! Would highly recommend J W Wood.
