About
Lesbury Close forms part of this highly popular development, situated close to Waldridge Fell Country Park and Chester-le-Street town amenities.
This superb family home has been substantially extended, improved and remodelled, creating a spacious and stylish property which must be seen to be appreciated.
A large 16ft conservatory greatly enhances the living space, and a 16ft garage conversion provides an additional sitting room, equally valuable as a home office or family area.
The kitchen and dining room have been combined to create an outstanding space, extending to almost 20 feet.
The layout now comprises a hall, living room, sitting room, refitted kitchen/dining room, conservatory, utility room and cloakroom/wc.
On the first floor, there are four well-proportioned double bedrooms, a refitted en suite shower room and a refitted family bathroom.
The outside space is also ideal for family buyers and for entertaining guests, with parking for three cars and an EV charging point on the block paved drive, and a bar/tv lounge constructed within the back garden.
The upgraded specification includes gas central heating with a replacement combination boiler (2021), uPVC double glazing and uPVC roofline.
Fellside Meadows is one of the town's more sought-after modern residential developments.
It offers ready road access to Chester-le-Street town centre, where a wide range of shops, schools and amenities are available.
The estate lies on the fringe of the attractive countryside of Waldridge Fell.
The town remains popular because of its excellent road links to Durham City, Gateshead, Newcastle upon Tyne and Sunderland.
Chester le Street railway station lies on the main East Coast railway line linking London and Edinburgh and offers a rapid link to Durham City and Newcastle upon Tyne.
