Stunning, stunning, stunning!
Is a word that gets used a lot in describing homes but in this case, it is absolutely correct. An true credit to the sellers and their keen eye for quality and detail, this stone built property is sure to appeal. Dating back to the 1880's, this stone built house was constructed in standard methods with stone and slates, and has been improved massively by the current owners. It features recently refitted double glazing and gas fired central heating along with a log burner. The property also features a wealth of storage solutions which is not common at all.
The accommodation comprises of an entrance hallway with feature tiled floor, a wonderful, dual aspect living room with feature bay window, log burner and the views for miles and miles over the fields and valley below. The room is filled with natural light from the two windows. Next up is the formal dining room currently arranged as a second sitting room, then the kitchen is at the rear. The kitchen has been very thoroughly thought about during fitting with a wide selection of fitted appliances and storage that are back lit. It is presented in high gloss beige with worktops and the appliances consist of a full height fridge, dishwasher and space for a free standing cooker. Lastly at the rear is a very useful utility room that features yet more storage and more integrated appliances including a washing machine, tumble dryer and freezer. A cloak room/wc completes the layout on the ground floor.
Moving up the stairs, there are four bedrooms - the master and second are doubles with fitted storage, the third is a generous single again with fitted storage and the fourth is currently arranged as an office. The family bathroom features a walk in shower, bath, toilet and sink, all very well presented with attractive tiling. The landing features yet more storage. The master bedroom, like the sitting room below is dual aspect so is wonderfully light and enjoys the fine views.
Externally, there is an enclosed rear yard that has been arranged with ease of maintenance in mind featuring terraced section with artificial grass. There is a large store cupboard for keeping of BBQ equipment and the like. To the front is a small garden area again with artificial grass.
Broomside is a small terrace of similar houses perched on a hill that enjoy amazing views. It is located on the outskirts of Coundon village and not far from Bishop Auckland town Centre. There are a couple of primary schools within close vicinity - St Joeseph's RC and Victoria lane, and the village has a selection of local amenities close by such as food outlets, a convenience sized supermarket, beauty shops and a couple of take aways. It is also a short distance from the A688 Highway providing swift access to other regional conurbation such as Barnard castle, Darlington and Durham.
