The accommodation is extremely spacious and impressive providing a sense of grandeur in a beautiful position alongside the river. This grandeur is emphasised by an array of extensive stone outbuildings, stables, and mature gardens as well as the adjacent fields and woodland. The total site extends to approximately 13 acres and represents a complete package of accommodation that is rarely available for sale.
Manor House has been previously divided into three separate apartments but is now a most impressive single residence with considerable character and prestige that will appeal to anyone who requires a spacious family home with additional rooms and outbuildings for other purposes. The property and outbuildings require general modernisation and updating in many areas but the sumptuous room sizes, secluded position and outstanding river aspect that this property commands give it the obvious potential to be one of the most important properties in the north east region.
The ground floor accommodation features a lovely entrance porch/conservatory with a large lounge and a kitchen diner. There are 4 other rooms currently used as a craft room, utility room and 2 storage rooms as well as a bathroom. There is a lovely return staircase providing access to the upper floors with 4 rooms at first floor (one currently used as a sitting room and one as a kitchen.) There are 2 additional bedrooms and a shower room/wc. At second floor there are 4 further bedrooms and a storeroom.
Externally the property occupies a large site which extends to approximately 13 acres. This includes a stretch of open grassland running adjacent to the river and broadly divided into two fields.
The fields have been used in the past for keeping pigs and historically as a campsite although they have been unused for several years. There is a large parking area suitable for many cars and larger vehicle storage.
In addition to the obvious potential for Manor House itself there are stone outbuildings and five stables capable of many different uses and providing obvious potential for someone wanting to keep horses and enjoy outdoor living. The kitchen garden and large conservatory would be ideal for horticulturists. The extensive gardens and orchard have the capability of being restored to their former glory. There are two garages.
Situated approximately 4 miles to the west of Sunderland city centre Manor House is ideally located for access to the A19 and the regional road network. The position is well placed for to commuting to Sunderland and Newcastle upon Tyne as well as other north east conurbations. The property is accessed via a single track road through North Hylton Village.
Viewing is essential to appreciate the size and stature of Manor House, its position its site and its outbuildings.

Broadband availability and predicted speed
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
