About this home

Pattinson Estate Agents are delighted to welcome to the market this beautifully extended and significantly upgraded detached family residence. Perfectly situated within Dunholm Close, Houghton-le-Spring (DH5 8NX), this home occupies a highly sought-after, desirable cul-de-sac location where properties of this nature rarely become available. Meticulously redesigned to offer spacious, contemporary living, the property has been substantially expanded to the rear to create a magnificent, open-plan living hub. At its heart is a bespoke kitchen featuring a show-stopping central island—perfect for cooking, dining, and entertaining—which flows seamlessly into the dining area and an airy conservatory. Practicality meets convenience with an attached garage offering direct access into the home, alongside a highly functional covered storage area spanning one full side of the property. Spread over three impressive floors, the generous sleeping arrangements comprise three spacious bedrooms and a versatile loft room, including a principal master suite complete with its own modern, private shower facilities. The interior connects beautifully with the outdoors, opening onto a private, entirely not-overlooked rear garden that offers a peaceful, secluded sanctuary. Combining contemporary luxury with exceptional connectivity, this rare-to-market home sits within easy reach of local schools, country parks, and major transport links like the A690.
