About this home

A substantial Detached Family Home with Private Woodland Outlook!

A beautifully presented and deceptively spacious four/five-bedroom detached family home, occupying a desirable cul-de-sac position on the popular Castlehills estate. With versatile accommodation, an exceptional landscaped rear garden and a private woodland outlook, this impressive property offers an ideal combination of space, flexibility and privacy.

The property has been thoughtfully adapted to provide a variety of living, working and entertaining spaces. A former double garage has been cleverly converted and divided, creating an additional reception room with excellent flexibility to use as a fifth bedroom, home office, hobby room, playroom or additional family space.

The accommodation comprises an entrance lobby with stairs to the first floor, additional reception room/potential fifth bedroom, spacious lounge, separate dining room and an impressive kitchen with adjoining utility room and ground-floor WC. A conservatory with underfloor heating, provides further versatile living space and enjoys a lovely outlook over the rear garden, with doors opening directly onto the patio.

To the first floor are four well-proportioned bedrooms, with the principal bedroom benefiting from fitted wardrobes and a private en-suite shower room. A family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.

Externally, the property is approached via a block-paved driveway providing parking for approximately three vehicles, together with an integral garage/storage area. An Ev charger located in the garage which also has light and power. There is an external double socket and tap to the rear.

The loft has been partially boarded and is accessed by a pull down ladder from the landing.

The beautifully landscaped rear garden is a particular highlight. Mature, established and exceptionally private, it features a combination of lawns, patios and well-stocked borders, providing a wonderful setting for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply relaxing. The garden backs directly onto woodland, creating a peaceful and secluded outlook with a superb natural backdrop rarely found in this type of property.

Additional landscaped garden and patio areas extend to the front and side, complementing the attractive presentation of the home.

The property benefits from gas central heating and uPVC double glazing.

Location Castlehills is a sought-after residential estate within the popular village of Castleside, offering a pleasant semi-rural setting while remaining conveniently positioned for Consett.

Castleside provides a range of local amenities, while Consett town centre is approximately 2½ miles away, offering a more comprehensive selection of shops, schools, leisure facilities and everyday services.

The A68 is also easily accessible, providing excellent road links south towards Darlington and north into Northumberland.

A substantial and versatile family home offering generous accommodation, excellent outdoor space and a genuinely private woodland setting. Early viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate the space, flexibility and position on offer.
