A beautiful property that has been massively improved by our clients, set in a tranquil location - perfect for anyone that loves the countryside, yet has the amenities of Chilton and Ferryhill within easy reach by car. Originally farm workers cottages, this end property has been extended and is now a three bedroom home that feels like a farm house, with off street parking, beautifully cultivated gardens full of colour and life. Our clients have brought it up to date with the addition of solar panels on the roof, batteries for electricity storage, an air source heat pump and EV charger meaning that and electric car will be cheap to run!

Upon entry to the property through the front door, the large kitchen diner takes up roughly half of the ground floor space. Here there is a large selection of kitchen units for storage along with worktops. Our clients currently have half of this space arranged as a dining room and then a separate snug with patio doors that lead out onto the deckling which creates an outside space - perfect for entertaining and enjoying the fine garden. The living room has been redecorated and is now a lovely snug room arranged around the newly installed log burner. On the first floor there are three bedrooms, all of which are doubles and all face the front of the house. the master bedroom features an ensuite shower./wc. On the landing at the rear, there is a walk in wardrobe/ small office space. The house bathroom completes the layout.

Externally, the property offers gated off street parking on the gravel driveway for several cars, there is a large wooden shed. The rear of the property is a courtyard with some outbuildings for storage. the neighbouring properties have a right of access over this.

The front garden is where this property truly shines and is the result of hours and hours of our clients work. It features a pond with small water feature and a selection of plants, bushes, shrubs and trees.

Great Chilton Farm is located a short drive from the village centre where a number local shops and amenities can be found such as convenience sized supermarkets, food outlets and beauty shops.

Reviews of JWW Bishop Auckland, the branch marketing this property.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I honestly can’t thank the team at JW Wood enough for the service I received. I initially contacted Barbara Smith after seeing a property advertised and, despite the very short notice, she managed to arrange a viewing for me within an hour of the property going live, with the viewing taking place that same afternoon. Martyn Hunter met us at the property and was brilliant. I decided to put an offer in and, incredibly, within another couple of hours the offer had been accepted by the vendor. Elizabeth Taylor then took care of all the paperwork and documentation, and by the following day I had everything sent through to my inbox. The whole process was unbelievably quick and straightforward, and everyone I dealt with was friendly, helpful and extremely efficient. You really don’t expect things to move that quickly when buying a property! A massive thank you to Barbara, Martyn, Elizabeth and the whole team at JW Wood. You made the whole experience so easy and stress-free, and I really appreciate the effort you all put in. Outstanding service from start to finish. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend JW Wood. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Chris
