Durham City houses come in all shapes and sizes. In terms of luxury living, the best Durham city houses can have as many as six bedrooms. They also tend to be near the city centre. The cheapest Durham houses for sale tend to be on the outskirts. Houses in Framwellgate Moor, houses in Pity Me and houses in Carrville are all good value.
Not all houses for sale in Durham are appropriately priced. Unfortunately, some Durham City houses are for sale at prices from before the recession. People need to understand that Durham houses for sale will only actually sell if the price is realistic.
A common concern for people buying houses for sale in DH1 is their proximity to the best schools.

Many new university staff seek houses for sale in Durham City that are within walking distance of Durham University.
A census of County Durham houses for sale would find an extraordinary range of choices from mansions down to terraced houses in remote villages. Of course, posh houses for sale in Durham county are not confined to Durham City, but there are fewer grand houses for sale in Durham’s rural areas.
A final point: if buying a Durham City house for family occupation, it is prudent not to choose a house for sale in Durham’s student ghetto: the viaduct area. Students should have fun at university, but not next door to me!
