3 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

Burnhopeside Avenue is a beautifully refurbished family home offering a warm, characterful interior, generous split level gardens and a superb village setting with direct access to woodland walks, all within easy reach of local amenities and schooling, making it an ideal first time purchase or long term family home.

The property has been lovingly improved during the current ownership and has remained within the same family for many years, creating a genuine sense of care and pride throughout. Entry is via a welcoming hallway with useful understairs storage, currently utilised as a pantry, before leading through to the heart of the home.

The kitchen is fitted with painted solid wood shaker-style units and incorporates a range of integrated appliances, including a dishwasher, alongside a freestanding Leisure gas range.

A door from the kitchen leads into a lean-to utility and boot room, with plumbing already in place to allow conversion into a ground-floor W.C. if desired. French doors open directly from the dining area onto the rear garden, enhancing the connection between indoor and outdoor living.

The lounge is a particularly attractive space, centred around an exposed brick inglenook fireplace housing a log burner, creating a cosy focal point and flowing seamlessly into the open plan kitchen diner beyond.

To the first floor, the landing provides access to three well-proportioned bedrooms and a modern family bathroom fitted with a bath, walk-in shower, vanity sink unit and chrome heated towel radiator.

Externally, the rear garden is arranged over split levels, beginning with a generous gravelled patio area ideal for entertaining and rising to lawned sections, planted borders and additional paved seating areas. A rear gate opens onto a walkway leading directly onto fields and further to Burnhope Wood, perfect for dog walks and outdoor enjoyment. There is also a brick-built outhouse providing valuable additional storage.

In recent years, the sellers advise that the property has benefited from replacement windows and external doors, a new heating system and a full rewire. Further enquiries should be directed to your conveyancer.

Positioned within walking distance of the village centre, local school and amenities, this is a charming and versatile home that combines character, practicality and location in equal measure.
