A SMALL PIECE OF HISTORY - THREE BEDROOM CEMETERY LODGE AND PARCEL OF LAND TO REAR

Built in well crafted local Stone to a gothic construction, this grade II listed three bedroom lodge is sure to be the talk of the Town. For Auction by order of Darlington Council, this is a rare opportunity to not just buy a little piece of history but also renovate and enjoy a unique project. In need of full restoration, the building formerly was arranged over two floors with three bedrooms and courtyard to the rear. Also boasting land to the rear of the property, that has a stone build boundary wall running across the top of Dublin Street, which we believe at one time had been direct access to the rear of the property and it could be seen as a possibility of becoming an access for vehicles to the property again. Built in the late 1800's, North Cemetery House was the residence of the foreman for the cemetery. Although internal viewings can not take place due to the condition of the property, we encourage external inspection to see the huge potential this project holds. As mentioned earlier, this property and its land to the rear are been sold by order of Darlington Council and a 30 month timeframe has been placed on the property for completion of any works. We have been informed that Darlington Council Planning will be aware of the timescale. This property is sold with vacant possession on a long leasehold (virtual freehold).
