Property Details

Nestled in the heart of Darlington, Westbrook presents a rare opportunity to own a truly unique terraced house, steeped in history and charm. Originally built in the late 1800s as part of Henry Pease’s development of the Westbrook Pleasure Gardens, this property stands as a testament to exquisite design and craftsmanship.

This magnificent four-storey residence has been substantially extended and refurbished, offering an immaculate living space that seamlessly blends original period features with modern comforts. With five spacious bedrooms and two inviting reception rooms, the accommodation is both generous and versatile, catering to a variety of lifestyles.

Set within an idyllic and tranquil setting, Westbrook is surrounded by lush greenery, creating a hidden oasis that feels a world away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The extensive grounds, totalling one-third of an acre, provide ample outdoor space for relaxation and recreation, while the magical gardens invite you to explore and unwind.

In addition to its stunning interiors and beautiful gardens, this property boasts off-street parking for at least five vehicles, a rare convenience in such a central location. Properties of this calibre, with such a unique character and generous accommodation, are seldom available on the market.

To truly appreciate the charm and elegance of Westbrook, an internal inspection is essential. This is not just a house; it is a dream property waiting to be cherished by its new owners.
