4 bedroom detached house

Rarely does the opportunity arise to purchase such an attractive and private property sat on a plot extending to approximately 1/3 of an acre but close to Durham City.

The property was originally constructed around 1900 and offers the spacious floorplan that period properties offer. The Farmhouse was then fully renovated in 2001. It has retained many of the period features including moulded cornice work, original fireplaces and picture rails. A viewing is highly recommended to understand all that this property has to offer. The flexible floorplan has accommodation that comprises, entrance lobby, hallway with the original staircase, lounge and sitting room which are both double aspect and a dining room along with the good sized kitchen/ breakfast room. To the first floor there is a large landing, four double bedrooms the main bedroom having an ensuite shower room as well as a separate family bathroom. Externally the property is accessed via a long driveway which is well screened by a mature hedge and opens up to an extensive parking area. The garden is of a good size and predominantly laid to lawn with established trees and shrubs creating a lovely meadow garden. There is a garage for additional parking.
