The house itself has been lovingly updated by our client during their ownership and provides immaculate accommodation comprising: entrance porch; inner hall with stairs to the first floor; attractive double aspect lounge with a feature fireplace (with woodstove) and French doors, overlooking the small beck and fields to the rear; and a dining room, also with a feature fireplace (and woodstove). The heart of the home must be the good-sized open plan kitchen/breakfast room which is double aspect with windows to front and French doors to the rear giving access to the patio area ideal for inside/outside living. The kitchen itself has a modern range of floor and wall units with granite worktops and inset double-bowl Belfast sink. There is a separate good-sized utility area with plumbing for washing machine and tumble dryer and which provides additional storage, and a bathroom with toilet/shower. On the first floor there are three bedrooms, all with triple glazing. The main bedroom has an extended space, ideal as a dressing area, double aspect and the additional benefit of en suite facilities. There are two further bedrooms, one with fitted cupboards/bookshelves and the other with an adjoining storage room. There is a family bathroom, with a stand-alone bath.
Externally, the property is set within its own gardens approached by a 50-metre red chipped gravel drive lined with trees and shrubs. Beyond the wrought iron double gates, the secluded south-facing front garden is predominantly laid to lawn interspersed with flowering shrubs and borders. There are also gardens to the side and rear, the latter area featuring an arbour and a small lawned area, beyond which is a substantial walled patio area providing a secluded seating area with views of wildlife and fields. A small gate gives access down to the beck which provides a quiet and idyllic backdrop to what is a truly special home.
The efficient heating system is based upon a modern combi-boiler/radiator system integrated, since 2021, with fourteen Sunpower solar panels on the south-facing roof, and a Tesla Powerwall battery (for storing excess generated electric). Further adding to the property’s green credentials, there is a Zappi electric vehicle charger point in the double garage, which has lights, numerous power points, and up-and-over doors.
Wallnook Lane occupies a semi-rural position on the outskirts of the village of Langley Park with an abundance of bird/wildlife. There are a range of local shops and amenities available a short walk away. A more comprehensive range of shopping and recreational facilities and amenities are available within Durham City Centre, the Arnison Centre and nearby Lanchester. The property lies a short drive from the A691, so is therefore well-placed for commuting purposes to other regional centres. It also benefits from regular direct bus services to Durham (including Park & Ride) and the Arnison Centre, as well as Newcastle, Sunderland and Consett. The Lanchester Valley section of the National Cycle Network (Route 14) is on the doorstep, giving easy access to Durham City and other nearby towns, and also linking to countryside walks in all directions.
