We are delighted to offer the opportunity to acquire this beautifully presented four-bedroom apartment, located in the highly sought-after Court Lane, in Durham City Centre.

This property is not only an excellent investment opportunity for any landlord, but also has recently undergone refurbishment and is beautifully presented throughout, making it an ideal property for a range of buyers. The apartment benefits from brand new carpets, new bathrooms, and full decoration, as well as being sold furnished. It adheres to the Durham Student Assured Housing Scheme and has previously been very popular among the student rental market. It has the potential to achieve £225 per room per week, making a total income of up to £46,800 per year.

The extensive floorplan - which is the largest in the building - briefly comprises: four spacious bedrooms, two of which having en-suite shower rooms, main modern bathroom, spacious living and dining room, and kitchen. There is an intercom system to the main door and the building also benefits from an elevator. Externally, there is an allocated parking space, which is regularly monitored. The service charge of the property covers a wide range of services, including building and maintaining a fund for all exterior works including painting and regular refurbishment and repainting of the internal communal areas. It also includes building insurance and water, please ask for more details.

What is now known as 'The Cathedrals' was previously the Victorian police station, and was converted in 2006 to create this stunning building of apartments. Residents of The Cathedrals benefit from a second-to-none Durham City Centre location, and this apartment in particular also shows off Cathedral views from three of the four bedrooms. Court Lane is located just behind Old Elvet, next to Durham Crown Court - hence the name, 'Court Lane'. Within close proximity lies all of the recreational and shopping facilities within Durham itself, along with the Student's Union, Bill Bryson library, and many university buildings. There are also many popular walking routes along the river.

We expect this property to be extremely popular, so contact Pattinson Durham as soon as possible to avoid missing out on this spectacular opportunity -[use Contact Agent Button].
