About
A substantial double-fronted period residence, believed to have been constructed between 1900 and 1929, occupying an established position on Auckland Terrace in Shildon.
Offering approximately 1,902 sq. ft.
of exceptionally versatile accommodation, the property combines generous room proportions with extensive ancillary space and several valuable accessibility adaptations.
The ground floor is arranged around two impressive reception rooms, each providing excellent space for everyday family living, entertaining or formal dining.
The principal living room is particularly generous and features an attractive fireplace, while the second reception room offers further flexibility for larger families, multi-generational living or those requiring a ground-floor sitting area.
A fitted through-floor lift connects the principal living accommodation with the first floor, complemented by a ground-floor WC and additional mobility adaptations.
Extending across the rear of the property is a practical kitchen and utility arrangement, fitted with a range of storage units, generous work surfaces and space for several freestanding appliances.
A separate laundry room provides further valuable household storage and working space, helping to keep the main accommodation organised.
To the first floor are four bedrooms, including two particularly well-proportioned double rooms, alongside two further bedrooms suitable for children, guests, dressing-room use or home working.
The family bathroom has been adapted as a spacious wet room, complete with accessibility fittings and a mobile shower chair.
A substantial cellar extends beneath part of the property and provides approximately 26 feet of additional storage space, offering considerable potential for a variety of uses, subject to any necessary improvements and consents.
Externally, the enclosed rear courtyard is arranged with accessibility in mind and features a gently sloping ramp connecting the different levels.
There is space for outdoor seating, established container planting and useful refuse storage.
A detached outbuilding, measuring approximately 12'5" by 10'11", provides an excellent workshop, hobby room or further storage facility.
A distinctive home of considerable scale and versatility, Auckland Terrace presents an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a four-bedroom period residence with two substantial reception rooms, extensive utility accommodation, a cellar, useful outbuilding and established accessibility features, all within easy reach of Shildon’s everyday amenities and transport connections.
