FOUR BEDROOM DETACHED FAMILY HOME WITH EXTENDED KITCHEN AND DOUBLE GARAGE

Situated on a generous plot within a popular residential location, this impressive freehold four bedroom detached family home offers spacious and versatile living, complemented by an extended kitchen and dining area, a double garage and a beautifully arranged south facing rear garden backing onto woodland.

The ground floor has been thoughtfully designed to suit modern family life. At the heart of the home is the extended kitchen and dining room, featuring attractive oak worktops, a central island and ample storage and preparation space. The extension creates a bright and sociable environment, with a family dining and living area centred around a log burner, making it an ideal space for both everyday living and entertaining. Two sets of bi-fold doors open directly onto the garden, while roof skylights allow an abundance of natural light to fill the room throughout the day.

A separate lounge provides a comfortable retreat, while a further reception room offers excellent flexibility as a home office, playroom or snug. A utility room and ground floor WC complete the accommodation.

The first floor comprises four well proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom. The principal bedroom benefits from its own en suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms provide comfortable space for family members, guests or home working.

Outside, the larger than average south facing rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped across several levels, creating a variety of outdoor spaces to enjoy. The lower level features paved patio areas, artificial lawn and decking, ideal for entertaining and relaxing, while the upper lawned sections back onto woodland, providing an attractive and private outlook.

To the front, a lawned garden complements the double width driveway, which provides ample off road parking and leads to the detached double garage.

Chester-le-Street offers an excellent range of local amenities including supermarkets, independent shops, cafés, restaurants, healthcare facilities and leisure facilities. The area is well served by highly regarded schools and benefits from excellent transport links via the A1(M), providing convenient access to Durham, Newcastle upon Tyne and Sunderland. Nearby parks, woodland walks and riverside paths offer excellent opportunities for outdoor recreation.

This spacious detached family home combines generous living accommodation, high quality entertaining space and a superb outdoor setting, making it an outstanding opportunity for families seeking both space and convenience.

Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the size and potential of this property.

Exclusivity Fee:
