Property Description

Individually designed and built in the 1980's in one of the region's most prestigious locations, this extremely spacious detached property occupies a fantastic plot, with extensive, well-kept and well-screened mature gardens. The gardens enjoy a westerly facing aspect to the rear, whilst to the front, a long, wide block paved double drive provides parking for numerous cars and leads to a sizeable double garage. The size and layout of the interior have to be seen to be appreciated, with spacious accommodation over two floors. The property is instantly impressive, entering the stunning two storey entrance hall with galleried landing and a spiral staircase. Two of the five bedrooms are on the ground floor, so they are equally usable as reception rooms or home working areas. The hall leads through to the main open plan living space. The split level living room and dining room both enjoy private views over the back garden, and extend to around 30ft. Also to the rear, the kitchen/breakfast room leads to a utility room, which has internal access to the garage. A cloakroom/wc is situated within the entrance hall. The impressive landing, overlooking the main hall, measures an impressive 38ft and leads to the three first floor bedrooms and family bathroom, all of which have a westerly aspect looking over the back gardens. The spacious main bedroom has been specifically designed to feature both indoor and outdoor areas, including a large outdoor balcony and an en suite shower room/wc. Available for sale for the first time, this fabulous property offers a rare and outstanding opportunity, not to be missed!

High Rickleton is a small and attractive village with easy access to both Chester-le-Street and Washington town centres. Despite its pleasant surroundings, it lies less than a mile from the A1M interchange and is therefore conveniently positioned for easy access to all major regional centres, including Durham City, Gateshead, Newcastle upon Tyne and Sunderland.
