About this property

Situated on the ever popular Laburnum Avenue, in the viaduct district of Durham City, this traditional three bedroom Victorian mid terrace property presents a rare opportunity for buyers seeking a home with exceptional potential.

Ready for modernisation throughout, the property offers a fantastic blank canvas to create a stunning family home, investment property, or lucrative renovation project in one of Durham's most sought after residential locations.

The accommodation retains many of the generous proportions synonymous with Victorian homes, comprising a welcoming entrance hallway, spacious reception rooms, and a kitchen to the ground floor, whilst the first floor provides three well-sized bedrooms and a family bathroom. The property's character, combined with its footprint, offers enormous scope for refurbishment, remodelling, and value enhancement, (subject to any necessary consents.)

Externally, the property benefits from a rear yard/garden area with further potential for improvement, creating additional outdoor living space to complement the internal accommodation.

Laburnum Avenue enjoys an enviable position just a short distance from Durham City Centre, Durham University, the railway station and an excellent range of local amenities, shops, bars and restaurants. The property is also ideally placed for commuters, with easy access to the A1(M), A690 and surrounding business hubs.

Offering huge development potential and available with no onward chain, this is an exciting opportunity for investors, developers and buyers looking to create a bespoke home in a highly desirable location.

Early viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate the scope and possibilities on offer.
