Description

This three-bedroom semi-detached house presents a rare opportunity for renovation enthusiasts to craft a remarkable family home in an enviable countryside location. The traditional-style property is set on an elevated position, offering stunning views towards Durham, complemented by a generous garden that maximizes this natural backdrop. A standout feature is the expansive garage measuring over 23ft x 14ft, which holds significant potential for conversion into additional living space with the appropriate planning permissions. Inside, the residence comprises a well-structured layout with two reception rooms and two bathrooms, providing bedroom and bathroom facilities across both floors. The ground floor features a spacious living/dining area, a separate sitting room, kitchen/breakfast room, third bedroom, and shower room. Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a sizeable bathroom. While the property benefits from gas central heating via a Baxi combination boiler and double glazing, it does require refurbishment to realize its full potential. Situated in a village with convenient access to local amenities and major road networks such as the A1(M), this home presents an enticing blank canvas for those looking to invest in an area with strong growth opportunities.
