25 Kirk Rise was built in 1999 by our clients, and has been occupied by them ever since - as such it has never been on the open market before. It is a property of high quality, very impressive size and as such is perfect for the large family. It is now offered to the market for the first time and we would highly recommend a viewing to fully appreciate the opportunity on offer.
The property has a wealth of features most properties do not such as a swimming pool, a pizza oven, a truly enormous cellar, ample off street and secure parking for a number of cars, fabulous views from a number of windows as well as a generous plot.
The accommodation comprises of a storm porch leading to a wide entrance hallway with a stair case leading up to the first floor. On the left hand side is a generous living room with feature gas stove and bay window with an office to the rear. On the other side of the hallway is the very impressive kitchen/dining room. This open plan room also features a bay window with patio doors leading to the front veranda and goes through to the glass garden room which features a wood burner and high glass walls to fully capture the fine views over the village. The kitchen itself features a number of handmade units in wood with worktops and space for free standing appliances. Next, a large utility/laundry room with wall mounted boiler and a cloak room/wc complete the layout on the ground floor.
On the first floor there are four double bedrooms - the master having a dressing area, sauna and ensuite shower room/wc. The main house bathroom completes the layout on this floor and comprises of a free standing, oval-shaped bath with mixer tap, sink, toilet and corner shower cubicle with mains fed shower.
On the second floor there are two further bedrooms - one currently arranged as a gym and the other has fine views down the valley to the east. These rooms share a further shower room/wc and a walk in wardrobe.
The cellar is large and comprises of a garage area with workshop and plant area for the swimming pool. It also features a toilet and ample space for storage.
Externally there is a block paved area for off street parking for numerous cars, a lawned area for children and pets to play on, the pool which is 9m x 4.5m and is enclosed with a semi-permanent cover, decked areas for entertaining and eating out, the pizza oven and a large wooden shed which could provide a number of uses but currently set up as a blacksmith's forge. To the rear of the house there is a terraced garden and further block paving.
Kirk Rise is located within the village of Frosterley which has a number of local facilities such as a pub, convenience sized supermarket and a "Good" Rated Primary School. Further facilities can be found at both Stanhope and Wolsingham. The North Pennines Area of Outstanding natural beauty provides many walks and beautiful things to see and do around the village and the village is classed as a conservation area.
