HOUSE AND LAND
Bradley Hall are delighted to offer for sale this spacious four-bedroom family home with approximately 25 acres of woodland/grassland set in a tranquil development of only three homes and having the added advantage of a quintessential detached oak framed barn with lower storage and a stunning office/guest accommodation above.
The location of this country home is perfect being located in a private and quiet location near West Rainton and approximately 5 miles north east of Durham City with easy access on to both the A1 and A19. Ideal for Newcastle or south to Teesside, as well as to Durham City. This property has easy access to Ramside Hall Hotel which offers two 18-hole golf courses, driving range, great club house facilities, a spa, gym and swimming pool complex as well as the 4-star hotel with its range of restaurants. Seldom do such properties become available with an array of bridle paths and the former rail line now used as a cycle path also on your doorstep.
Barn cottage has the benefit of being on one level with high ceilings and large windows which enhances the space. It’s hard to believe this property was once a former hospital building which was converted in 1994. The vendors have thoroughly modernised the property but still retained its charm and character.
The front door leads into a spacious porch with alcoves for storage and then into a large entrance hall, from which all of the accommodation can be accessed. To the left is the kitchen, comprising wooden wall and floor units with a mix of granite and cream coloured worksurfaces a feature brick wall with an induction hob. There is a separate double oven, sink, dishwasher and plenty of space for a large kitchen table. Following on from the kitchen is a utility room with fitted oak wall and floor units, sink and space for a fridge and other appliances. This in turn leads to a bright, dual aspect garden room with full height windows overlooking mature gardens and the surrounding countryside. There is also a separate laundry room with plumbing for a washing machine. The lounge is accessed off the entrance hall and comprises a log burner and high ceilings with wooden beams. To the right of the entrance hall is a family bathroom with both a bath and shower, four bedrooms with the master having built in wardrobes and an en-suite. The property also benefits from a separate dining room and study.
Access to the land is directly opposite the house and the spectacular, newly built, home office is directly behind the house, with its own entrance. This modern building also encompasses a double garage and boiler room for the biomass boiler. The home office is located above the double garage and has great space for working or living. Due to the roof lights the natural light floods in and the contemporary office benefits from fantastic views over the surrounding countryside.
The rear of the property benefits from large mature garden with trees and shrubs creating privacy. A decked area wraps around a good portion of the rear of the house to create additional entertaining space
Land
The land is approximately 24.74 acres (10.01 ha) of woodland and grassland held as two enclosures. Planted in the middle of each field the woodland area consists of broadleaf varieties surrounded by a grassland border. The approximate grassland area is 5 acres. There is an existing English Woodland Management Grant Scheme in place, full details of which are available upon request. There is also a carbon credit scheme on the land for which full details are available upon request. The mineral rights are not included, and the sporting rights are included in so far as they are owned.
Services
The house is connected to a mains water and electricity supply and has a private drainage system. The house and office space are heated by a Solarfocus biomasss boiler which uses wood pellets as fuel. The boiler is on a government backed renewable heat incentive scheme and currently returns approximately £3800 per annum in income. The scheme ends in March 2022. Eight PV solar panels (3.22kw array) on the roof of the office building provide an additional electricity supply with a separate feed in tariff meter. Annual generation is approximately 2,805KWh. The house is fully double glazed with UPVC windows and doors, and internal doors are a mix of softwood and solid oak.

From Durham take the A690 east, passing Ramside Hall. After the turn for Pittington, take the next right-hand turn, crossing the dual carriageway into Robin Lane. Barn Cottage is on the right-hand side approximately half a mile along Robin Lane, down a private driveway.
