Perched high above the banks of the River
Wear, South Street has long been regarded
as one of the best residential addresses in
Durham City. The Georgian cobbled street
boasts some of the most prestigious homes
in the region due to their location in the
heart of the city. These properties enjoy what
are arguably the best views available of the
Durham Castle and Cathedral complex. The
central location also allows easy access into
the city with its vibrant mix of shops, bars
and restaurants as well as being within
walking distance of the nearby station for
east coast main line routes around the
country. The well-regarded Durham School is
also on the doorstep of South street.
Sangreal House has been lovingly restored
and improved by the current owners and
provides a superb city town house which has
retained several original features. The Grade
ll Listed house is steeped in history, including
a spell as a school in the 1940’s-50’s, and has
one of the most regal central staircases
(which was featured by Sir Nikolaus Pevsner
in his famous architectural guides to Britain),
and a central roof lantern than oods the
core of the house with natural light.
The classical Georgian exterior
and truly modern interior blends
