Nestled within a highly desirable and well-established residential location, this superb detached family home provides a combination of generous proportions, versatile living accommodation and attractive outdoor space. Ideally positioned for convenient access to a wide range of local shops, schools, amenities and transport links, the property is perfectly suited to modern family life and offers excellent connectivity to the surrounding areas.
Upon entering the property, you are welcomed into a spacious entrance hallway which provides access to the principal ground floor accommodation and stairs leading to the first floor.
The beautifully presented lounge is a particularly welcoming reception space with two windows overlooking the front aspect. An attractive focal point fireplace creates a pleasant central feature and enhances the character and warmth of the room, making this an ideal space in which to relax and unwind.
Also positioned to the front of the property is the formal dining room, another generously proportioned reception room featuring two windows to the front aspect. This versatile room provides an excellent setting for family meals, entertaining guests or more formal occasions.
To the rear of the property is a superb family room, offering an extremely versatile additional reception space. With direct access to the rear garden via patio doors, this room could be adapted to suit a variety of requirements and would make an ideal playroom, hobby room, snug, garden room or additional family sitting room. The outlook and direct connection with the garden make this a particularly appealing space for family use.
The heart of the home is undoubtedly the impressive dining kitchen, which is located to the rear and benefits from views over the garden. The kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of wall and base units, providing generous storage and preparation space, together with built-in cooking appliances and space for an American-style fridge/freezer. The dining area provides ample room for a table and chairs, while patio doors open directly onto the rear patio and garden, creating a wonderful connection between the indoor and outdoor living spaces.
A useful utility room provides additional practical space for laundry and household appliances, while a convenient downstairs WC completes the ground floor accommodation.
To the first floor, the property continues to impress with four generously proportioned double bedrooms, two of which benefit from their own en-suite shower rooms, providing excellent convenience and privacy for family members or guests.
The fifth bedroom, currently utilised as a study/home office, offers further flexibility and could readily be used as a child’s bedroom or nursery if required.
The remaining bedrooms are served by a spacious family bathroom, providing a well-appointed central bathroom facility.
Externally, the property enjoys attractive and practical outdoor areas to both the front and rear. The front garden has been designed with relatively low-maintenance gravelled landscaping, while to the side of the property is a block-paved driveway providing generous off-street parking and leading to the double garage, offering excellent additional storage and parking provision.
The enclosed rear garden is a particular highlight of the property and provides an excellent outdoor space for both relaxation and entertaining. The garden features an artificial lawned area, a generous block-paved patio providing plenty of space for outdoor dining and seating, together with a raised/decked terrace offering an additional seating area.
This exceptional family home offers a superb amount of accommodation, with its combination of four/five bedrooms, three reception rooms, impressive dining kitchen, three bathrooms, downstairs WC, utility room, double garage, driveway with EV charging point and excellent enclosed rear garden providing the flexibility and space that modern family living demands.
The property is ideally placed for access to local amenities, schools, shops and transport links, including convenient access to the A1, providing excellent commuter connections towards Durham, Newcastle and further afield.
A superb and highly versatile family home which must be viewed to be fully appreciated. Early viewing is strongly recommended.
