Whitesmocks, Durham, DH1 4HW

Grinton Cottage is a beautifully presented three bedroom detached bungalow, occupying a generous plot on Whitesmocks in Durham, offering potential for redevelopment/extension. A key attraction is its convenient location, with Durham Johnston School, University Hospital of North Durham and Durham city centre all within easy reach.

A spacious sand open hallway provides a welcome space upon entering the property. To the rear a beautifully presented living/dining room has patio doors opening to the enclosed and secluded rear garden. The kitchen features a contemporary range of wall and base units topped with a quartz work surface and again enjoying access to the rear.

The well-proportioned accommodation includes three bedrooms, with the first floor bedroom benefiting from fitted wardrobes and a shower room. A stylish family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms on the ground floor, complemented by an additional WC/utility area.

Outside, the generous gardens provide an attractive setting for outdoor living and wildlife. The Northern Saints Trails bridle path runs through the rear of the plot, while a hot tub provides an additional space to relax. A detached art studio with electricity offers versatile space for creative pursuits or use as a home office. The rendering to the exterior does require some updating.

Practical features include a detached single garage and EV charger. With Durham Johnston School, the hospital, city centre and local amenities conveniently accessible, the location complements the space and flexibility offered by the property.
