With the original portion dating back to the 1780's with a further addition in the 1880's, we are delighted to offer for sale this substantial vacant five bedroomed Period property boasting a grand open plan lounge/diner with French doors opening to the southerly facing garden overlooking the Wear Valley.
The property does require some cosmetic updating but offers a substantial and flexible floor plan comprising: entrance hallway, opening through to a large inner hallway with space to accommodate a desk and stairs to the first floor, 28ft long grand lounge/diner with French doors opening to the rear garden and a fitted kitchen. To the first floor there are three bedrooms, one of which is currently used as a study, and a family bathroom with a separate walk in shower cubicle. On the second floor there are three further bedrooms, one of which could be used as a lounge, and the top floor also includes a self contained kitchen and a bathroom to complete the area which could be used as a separate nanny flat or teenage suite. Externally there is a lawned garden to the front of the property with blossoming trees including a productive pear tree with a winding drive giving access to the garage providing additional parking which has an electric door and a car charging port for an electric car. The rear garden is terraced with a lawn at the upper level with a substantial rhododendron bush. On the lower level there is also access to the cellar which runs under the original portion of the house.
The property is being offered with no onward chain and needs to be viewed to appreciate the opportunity on offer to create a fantastic family home.
The property sits on the main road through Willington with a bus stop immediately to the front of the house.
