Originally built circa 1895, Railway Cottage enjoys a peaceful position on the outskirts of Darlington, offering the perfect balance of countryside living and convenient access to local amenities. The property is ideally situated for commuters, with excellent transport links via the A1(M), A19 and A66, providing easy connections both north and south, as well as to neighbouring towns.
This immaculately presented semi-detached bungalow offers spacious and versatile accommodation, comprising a generous lounge, a contemporary fitted kitchen, three well-proportioned bedrooms, two modern bathrooms, and a practical utility room.
The home benefits from oil-fired central heating and is fully double glazed throughout. Accessed through secure electric double gates, the property boasts an extensive driveway providing ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles.
Set within approximately 0.32 acres, the beautifully maintained grounds feature attractive lawned gardens, patio seating areas, well-stocked flower and shrub borders, mature hedgerows, and enclosed wooden fencing, creating a private and tranquil outdoor space.
A standout feature of the property is the two substantial outbuildings, each offering multiple rooms and pens. One was previously operated as a fully equipped cattery, while the second remains unfitted, presenting a wealth of possibilities for a range of business ventures, hobby use, or conversion, subject to any necessary consents.

By setting a proxy bid, the system will automatically bid on your behalf to maintain your position as the highest bidder, up to your proxy bid amount. If you are outbid, you will be notified via email so you can opt to increase your bid if you so choose.
If two of more users place identical bids, the bid that was placed first takes precedence, and this includes proxy bids.
Another bidder placed an automatic proxy bid greater or equal to the bid you have just placed. You will need to bid again to stand a chance of winning.
