The Hermitage Estate

Constructed at the turn of the 19th Century, this magnificent mansion house is set in approximately 70 acres of park and woodland and typifies the gracious living afforded to the landed gentry of the time. The estate has been sympathetically converted into a limited number of luxury houses and apartments whilst retaining the priceless character of an historic building. Occupants of the estate have the privileged use of the estate facilities, which include the splendid communal entrance hall, large Victorian conservatory, indoor heated swimming pool, gymnasium, sauna, tennis court and lake. The extensive grounds provide a beautiful setting with scenic woodland and riverside walks. Remote-controlled gates and a video entry system give access to the estate.

Location.

The Hermitage is located at the southern fringe of Chester-le-Street. The town is a principal location for those seeking easy access throughout the North East, and the A167, A693, A183 and A1M interchange provides excellent road links. The town, therefore, not only offers an excellent range of shops, schools and amenities but also easy access to Durham City, Gateshead, Newcastle upon Tyne, Sunderland and the major airports at Newcastle and Teesside. Chester-le-Street also offers a railway station on the main east coast line.
