A rare opportunity to purchase a unique period property within a rural setting which allows easy accessibility to necessary modern amenities. It is within an easy daily commute of Durham, Newcastle and Middlesbrough and the rest of the region. In addition, the East Coast heritage coastline is only a 10-minute drive away.
The period property is set in a superb location, on the edge of Castle Eden Dene Nature Reserve. It occupies approximately 1.5 acres of ancient woodland and is bordered by a stream to the rear and a brick wall with wrought iron gates to the front.
The house itself was built in 1895 and has been carefully and sensitively restored to retain as many original features, fixtures and fittings as possible. These have been merged with contemporary styling to provide a modern home that still retains its distinctive period character and charm.
The property’s high standard of decoration and maintenance ensures that it is move in ready.
The ground floor layout offers versatile living spaces by using interconnecting doors which can ‘zone’ the spaces for specific purposes and dual aspect windows that allows for natural light across the day.
There is a separate brick built double garage with inspection pit and an attached workshop. It includes electrical circuits and wiring in both buildings. There are other outbuildings within the grounds.
The grounds have been exceptionally well managed, during the current owner’s 31-year tenure, to establish a mature and naturalised woodland with landscaped terraces which have created a wonderful natural environment.
