About this home

“Avondale” has been a much loved family home. During that time it has changed and been much loved, and it now comes to the market seeking it’s next owners to love it as much as they did. It’s a very large property offering accommodation that is very flexible and could be altered to suit a wide variety of tastes. It offers a number of period features! The accommodation comprises of an entrance hallway with original doors and surrounding windows with stained glass. On either side of the hall are reception rooms, both with bay windows, and both with fireplaces - one a real fire, the other a real flame gas fire. To the right of the hallway lie the three bedrooms - two generous doubles and a single. The house bathroom comprises of a bath with shower above, toilet and sink, and there is an additional single toilet as well. Moving through the property the kitchen diner comprises of a selection of units for storage- both floor and wall mounted with space for free standing appliances, along with space for a table. Moving toward the back of the property, next is the utility room and then the lean to garage is located at the very back, and opens up on to the back street. We feel that the kitchen and utility could be combined to create a fantastic room –On the first floor the layout comprises of essentially three rooms - one central room which has been used as a games room in the past and two other rooms which are accessed off the this could provide a multitude of uses such as office, playroom, guest accommodation and bedrooms. Externally the property has a rear garden which is laid to lawn and to the front is surrounded with a hedge and to one side there is a paved driveway which provide additional off street parking The property lies on the Queen's road, so has Asda literally at the end of the Street, and Bishop Auckland town centre just beyond that, so it has a wealth of facilities within very easy reach. King James Academy is also a very short walk away. This is a great opportunity to secure such a property, so we would recommend a viewing to appreciate the size and flexibility on offer.
