Having been individually designed and built, The Garth has remained in family ownership ever since it was built. The house itself sits on a substantial plot with gardens to all sides and while requiring cosmetic updating does have a spacious and flexible floor plan.

The property does have refitted double glazing and a gas boiler. The house itself has accommodation comprising: entrance hallway with stairs to the first floor and under stairs storage cupboard, triple aspect lounge with feature fireplace and inset gas fire, double aspect dining room with an attractive bay window to front and feature fireplace with inset gas fire, kitchen with a range of floor and wall units with inset sink unit, space for gas Range cooker with extractor fan over, plumbing and space for washing machine and dishwasher. There is a large walk in pantry cupboard and a rear area with space for a fridge freezer, this in turn leads through to the conservatory overlooking the garden with French door giving access. To the first floor there is a large landing area with picture window to rear, triple aspect main bedroom with windows to front, side and rear. There are two further bedrooms and a bathroom with a coloured suite comprising low level wc, pedestal wash hand basin, cast iron panelled bath and separate shower cubicle with electric wall mounted shower. The immaculately maintained gardens surround the house and have lawned areas to the front, side and rear interspersed with flowering shrubs and borders and established trees and hedging. The plot is particularly private to the rear and has a patio area for seating. There is a substantial driveway providing ample parking, as well as a detached double garage with two up and over doors, light and power.

All in all, this property needs to be seen to fully appreciate the size and space on offer.

The Garth occupies a main road position and is therefore handily placed for access to everyday shops, etc., within the village. More comprehensive shopping and recreational facilities and amenities are available within Durham City, Durham City Retail Park at Gilesgate, and nearby Sedgefield. It is also just off the A(177) Highway, which provides good road links to Durham City, Teesside and the A1(M) Motorway Interchange at Bowburn.
