Rent a home

Hellens Residential are happy to announce four brand new three-bedroom Rent to Buy properties on Bowman Street.

With the Rent to Buy scheme you rent your home for a 5-year period at an intermediate rent of 80% to market rent. The idea is that this allows you to save up for a deposit in this time period. After the 5 year rental period, you will then have the opportunity to purchase your home (100% including freehold) directly from Hellens Residential at market value. The rent that you pay throughout this time does not contribute to the purchase of property. If after 5 years you do not want to buy then you are able to continue renting at market rent levels, end your tenancy, or we may sell the property on the open market. If you require additional information please call the office on 0191 594 6666

Upon entry, you are greeted by a spacious hallway providing access to a large kitchen, a downstairs WC, and the living room. The brand-new fully fitted kitchen offers plenty of storage and worktop space. It can also be used as a kitchen/dining area, with ample room for a table and chairs. Next to the kitchen, you will find a convenient downstairs WC. At the end of the hallway, there is a generous living area featuring French doors with windows on either side, allowing plenty of natural light to fill the living room. The French doors give access to the property’s rear garden and provide access to the parking bays.

Up the first set of stairs, you will find a landing that leads to two well-sized bedrooms and a shared bathroom.

Up the second set of stairs, there is a spacious third bedroom with its own en-suite, complete with a shower.

These units are located in the Harrowgate Hill area of Darlington. Fantastically located close to primary and secondary schools as well being within walking distance to convenience stores and more.

The properties are 5 minutes’ drive from the A1 North & South, and 10 minutes from Darlington Railway Station. They are also brilliantly located to open parks including North Park, which is a large green space away from the centre of town suitable for all the family to enjoy.

Hellens Residential will undertake referencing checks on all applicants wishing to move into a rental property. As part of this process, we will undertake a credit check to ensure each applicant does not have any adverse credit. We will also determine affordability to ensure applicant’s income sufficiently covers rental payments. We will also require photo ID and credible documentation to suit.

Full months’ rent upfront required as well as deposit required prior to key handover.

Deposit amounts to a full month rent and is payable at least three days before handover.
