About
The living space, outside space, gardens, quiet cul de sac and excellent location all combine to make this unique property a wonderful family home.
Tucked away within one of the estate's smaller cul de sacs, this substantially extended and remodelled property has been designed to create fantastic, functional living space, ideal for family living.
Extended on both floors, it includes two reception rooms, a superb extended kitchen/breakfast room, a ground floor cloakroom/wc, four bedrooms and two bathrooms.
With multiple block paved parking spaces to the front and an attractive south-facing landscaped garden to the rear, this spacious house is sure to impress, so we strongly recommend early viewing.
On the ground floor, the hall leads to the living room with a large walk-in bay, and double doors leading to a separate dining room with French windows opening to the back garden.
The extended kitchen/breakfast room is a superb, large open-plan area, with an extensive range of units, a central island and breakfast bar, and integrated appliances.
Part of the garage has been used to create a useful ground floor wc.
On the first floor, the generous sized bedrooms and bathroom have been added to, with the addition of a 19ft main bedroom and en suite shower room.
The good-sized south-facing back garden is a particularly attractive feature of this impressive home, and with bungalows to the rear, there is a good degree of additional privacy.
The improved specification includes gas central heating via radiators with a replacement Ideal Logic combination boiler, uPVC double glazing and roofline, and oak internal doors.
Garden Farm is a sought-after and established development lying a short distance to the west of the town centre.
It is easily accessible to the town, where many shops, schools, and amenities are available.
Chester-le-Street is an excellent commuter base with good road links to Durham City, Gateshead, Newcastle upon Tyne, and Sunderland.
The town's railway station is on the East Coast Line linking London and Edinburgh, providing quick access to Durham and Newcastle.
