Description

This distinctive five-bedroom detached property is situated in the picturesque village of St John’s Chapel, Weardale, offering a blend of space, potential, and serene countryside views. The property is set within its own grounds and features double iron gates that provide access to ample parking alongside a spacious double garage equipped with an inspection pit—ideal for automotive enthusiasts or as a workshop space. As you enter the home, you're greeted by a generous kitchen that includes country-style wooden cabinetry and an oil-fired Rayburn Range, which not only adds rustic charm but also serves as a heating source. This room flows into a sizable lounge characterized by light from multiple windows and an open fireplace that offers both warmth and ambiance. The dining room further enhances the communal living space with its expansive layout and exposed beams, perfect for gatherings. Additionally, on the ground floor, there is versatile accommodation that could serve as either a study or a fifth bedroom, depending on your needs. Upstairs, you will find four well-proportioned bedrooms including a master suite with an en suite bathroom. Each bedroom has been thoughtfully designed to maximize natural light while providing quaint views of the surroundings. The existing bathrooms include traditional fixtures but offer opportunities for updates to suit modern tastes. The outdoor spaces are equally appealing; the extensive garden is bordered by mature trees and features areas for relaxation and play, along with picturesque fountains. There's potential here for landscaping enhancements or even creating distinct outdoor living spaces tailored to family needs or entertainment purposes. Considering renovation potential, this property can be adapted to enhance its current features or modernized throughout. Located amidst North Pennines' stunning landscapes, local amenities such as pubs and cafés add to the community's charm while providing everyday conveniences. Whether you're looking for a family home or an investment opportunity to expand upon existing structures—such as potentially converting parts of the garage into additional living quarters—the possibilities abound here in this tranquil setting where rural beauty meets practical living.
