This spacious bungalow will prove very hard to beat in terms of its prime town location, sizable layout, and excellent cul-de-sac plot, including south-facing back gardens and ample gated parking. Requiring updating, this substantial property is perfectly suited for buyers wanting to create their ideal forever home to their own specifications. Featuring two reception rooms, three bedrooms and extensive attic rooms, this sensibly priced bungalow provides lots of living space, both inside and out, large enough to accommodate the needs of family buyers. With so many appealing features coming together in one property, this is a rare opportunity, so early viewing is highly recommended. The layout features a central hall, a spacious 17-foot living room, a separate dining room, and an 18-foot kitchen extension. To the other side of the hall, there are three bedrooms and a good-sized bathroom/wc. A fixed staircase from the inner hall leads to three large attic rooms, which together span the full width of the original bungalow. To the front of the bungalow, wrought iron double gates open to an extensive block paved parking area and the attached garage. There is a good-sized enclosed southerly facing back garden. This fine property is available with a Freehold Title and no onward chain.

Orchard Gardens is ideally situated within walking distance of Chester le Street's town centre amenities and the attractive Riverside Park area adjacent to the River Wear and First Class County Cricket ground. The town is an excellent commuter base with good road links to Durham City, Gateshead, Newcastle upon Tyne and Sunderland.
