Property in County Durham
County Durham has beautiful, and often under-rated, countryside, villages and amenities – from the stone villages and farms of Teesdale and Weardale to the historic city of Durham.
It often offers excellent value compared with neighbouring areas, and our large coverage area has often introduced buyers to it who otherwise would not have discovered it.
Rural properties in the North Pennines and the Durham Dales can come with their own considerations, such as private water supplies, septic tanks or rights of way. We deal with these regularly, and we can advise on how best to present them to buyers.
Areas we cover
- Barnard Castle and Teesdale
- Middleton-in-Teesdale and Upper Teesdale
- Stanhope and Weardale
- Staindrop and the surrounding villages
- Durham and its surrounding villages
- Darlington and the south of the county
- Bishop Auckland and the Wear Valley
…and all the towns, villages and hamlets in between.
