A beautifully presented and generously proportioned four-bedroom detached family home, offering an excellent balance of stylish living accommodation, versatile reception space and attractive gardens. Situated within a desirable residential setting in Barnard Castle, this impressive home has been thoughtfully designed for modern family life, with spacious rooms and a wonderful connection between the indoor and outdoor living areas.

The welcoming entrance hall creates an immediate sense of space and leads through to the principal reception rooms. The elegant lounge is a particularly inviting space, featuring a contemporary electric fireplace and enjoying plenty of natural light from the front-facing window and French doors with glazed side panels opening directly onto the rear garden. Double doors also connect the lounge with the kitchen, creating a lovely flow throughout the ground floor.

A further reception room to the front provides valuable flexibility and could comfortably be used as a formal dining room, family room, playroom or home office, depending on individual requirements.

The kitchen forms a wonderful heart to the home and is fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and base units, complemented by granite work surfaces and a central island with a luxury wooden extension, creating an excellent space for both everyday family life and entertaining. Integrated appliances include a dishwasher, fridge/freezer and microwave, while a double range cooker with gas hob completes the space. French doors lead directly out to the rear garden, further enhancing the lifestyle appeal of this impressive family home. A separate utility room and ground-floor cloakroom add further practicality.

To the first floor are four well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and a stylish en-suite featuring both a bath and separate shower. Bedroom four also enjoys the convenience of its own en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms provide comfortable and flexible accommodation for family, guests or home working. A well-appointed family bathroom completes the first-floor accommodation.

Externally, the property enjoys an attractive frontage with lawn, mature planting and a generous tarmac driveway providing parking for several vehicles and leading to the double garage. The rear garden offers a lovely space for relaxing and entertaining, with paved patio and terrace areas, lawn, mature trees and planting, a water feature and useful garden shed.

Barnard Castle is a pretty market town with excellent schools and huge range of shops and cafes. The town is situated on the North of the River Tees and it sits right on the edge of the North Pennines National Landscape (formerly an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty). The area provides superb cycling routes and beautiful walks for hikers. The local Reservoir also has an observatory and sailing club.
