Southend Avenue, Darlington, DL3 7HL

Offers a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully presented period townhouse, blending elegant original features with thoughtfully updated accommodation extending across three floors. Situated within one of Darlington's most sought-after residential locations, this end-of-terrace has an impressive four-bedrooms which combine character, space and versatility, complemented by a south-facing courtyard and detached garage.

Stepping through the original etched glass entrance door, the home immediately showcases its period charm with original tiled flooring, wood floors and generous proportions throughout. The bay-fronted living room is a particularly inviting space, centred around a feature limestone fireplace as well as a double-sided log-burning stove. The log burner opens to both the living room as well as the dining room. The separate dining room offers an equally appealing setting for entertaining, complete with Crittall-style double doors. With the property being end-of-terrace, the lower floor is flooded with natural lighting, downstairs there are multiple windows to both the side as well as the front of the property.

To the rear, the stunning kitchen/diner forms the heart of the home. It is fitted with a comprehensive range of units, integrated appliances and ample dining space, with direct access to the south-facing courtyard. A practical utility/WC completes the ground floor accommodation.

The first floor hosts three well-proportioned bedrooms and a beautifully appointed family bathroom featuring a walk-in shower, bidet and bespoke marble vanity unit with Travertine basin. One of the bedrooms enjoys access to a private balcony overlooking the courtyard. Occupying the entire second floor, the principal guest suite provides an impressive fourth bedroom with Velux windows, fitted storage and a modern en-suite shower room.

Externally, the south-facing courtyard offers a private and low-maintenance outdoor space, while the detached garage benefits from power, lighting and water supply. The home has recently had a fully refurbished roof, with original Welsh slate tiles to the main house, and new composite slate-style tiles to the rear extension. The garage has large folding doors onto Beechwood Avenue that provide full, direct access from the road.

Combining timeless Edwardian architecture with contemporary comforts, this exceptional home is ideally placed for Darlington town centre, highly regarded schools, transport links (including links to the East Coast mainline) and local amenities, making it perfectly suited to modern family living. It is a short distance from Darlington Train Station, making this property ideal for commuters.
