First time on the market in 65 years

We couldn’t help but be impressed when first arriving at this stunning property. Glebe Road is one of my favourite Streets in Darlington with its picturesque landscape and beautiful residences. It was late afternoon when we first arrived, there was plenty of space to park sheltered amidst the canopy of trees at the end of the cul-de-sac. Neighbours were out walking their dogs in the balmy spring air, stopping for a familiar chat born from decades of shared history. Glebe Road is the perfect example of Darlington’s wonderful community spirit.

Walking down the leafy, tree lined driveway, our senses were filled with the colours, scents and sounds of a hidden garden blossoming before our eyes. The history of this “Orchard Cottage” is evident in it’s style and architecture. If you listen carefully, amidst the sound of magpies and cockatoos, you can hear children’s laughter echoing through the years, this magical property is waiting to become a treasured family home once again.
