The raid followed a meeting in the Langbaurgh area at which residents raised their concerns about drug dealing.
Inspector Jason Dixon, who was at the meeting, said: "Residents raised concerns about several issues in the area and in particular about drug dealing at several addresses.
"As a result this house was raided. This shows our commitment to listening to the public and we will react swiftly to any concerns they have."
