6 bedroom terraced house

This imposing, stone built mid terrace, was originally home to Mr John Gardiner who was the founder of Lingford Gardiner - the company that owned the railway works in Bishop Auckland, his initials were etched into the plaster work of the second floor which was unearthed when our clients refurbished the property. It was originally constructed in 1865 in stone, however since purchasing the house, our clients have carried out a programme of refurbishment, re-establishing some period features such as the original tiled flooring in the hallway, the stained glass to the windows and coving to the ceilings. This is a great house with loads of space, and is handily located in the middle of town with all of the facilities and amenities that Bishop Auckland has to offer!

The accommodation comprises of an entrance hallway with the stair rising to the first floor, the main living room with feature bay window, high ceilings and fireplace, stripped and stained original floorboards and door leading through to the dining room. the kitchen has been newly installed and features a wealth of store cupboards in Blue and grey with gold coloured handles, integrated and free standing appliances with tiled splash backs and a very useful utility space with a traditional clothes airing pulley. The kitchen also features underfloor heating. A Cloak room/wc completes the ground floor.
