This stunning Grade II* listed ground floor apartment in Durham City Centre boasts a unique combination of historical charm and modern convenience. The property, which dates back to the late 1600s and was once a former convent, features intricate plaster mouldings by renowned artist Giuseppe Cortese. The apartment has been sympathetically restored and retains many of its original features, including a large entrance hallway, ornate cornicing, and an impressive marble fireplace. The spacious floor plan includes a fantastic living room, dining room, kitchen, two en-suite bedrooms, and a separate WC. The property also benefits from a private garden and designated parking space, as well as access to an upper level via a pull-down loft ladder and three curved brick ceiling cellars on the lower ground floor. The apartment is leasehold with a 999-year lease and a peppercorn ground rent, and is situated within the Durham City conservation area. While the property requires some internal updating, its unique character and desirable location make it an attractive opportunity for those looking for a piece of history in the heart of the city.
