Built in the early 1900s and situated at the rural edge of Shotley Bridge with access along a gated driveway, the house has been considerable and sympathetically extended to provide a beautiful home that exudes quality and has an abundance of character within this superb setting just off the A694.

The final door from the hall leads into the snug - with a door to another decked balcony - then through to the well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room fitted with sycamore units, granite worktops and island/breakfast bar, Camaro flooring and a Range-style cooker with induction hob and two double ovens. Through the kitchen, which has another entrance door, is a corridor leading to the south-west wing of the house where there is a shower room and two bedrooms.
Stairs from the reception hall lead up to the first floor where there is an impressive tiled bathroom, off the half landing, with a contemporary suite that includes a spa bath and walk-in shower cubicle, and two double bedrooms - one either side of the landing - one with fitted wardrobes.
Externally, there are well-cultivated organic gardens with lawned areas, paths and patios, mature trees and shrubs and a small pond, with a large sloping woodland garden area to the rear of the house, down towards the River Derwent, looked over from the large decked area that runs along from the garden room to the far end of the house. There is a tarmac driveway from the electric gates that leads to the double-length garage - with electric roller door, lights, electric and water supply - and a parking area behind that has space to park several cars. Continuing down the drive there is access to a further gravelled parking area, next to the enclosed tennis court. Additionally, there is a small stable block situated just behind the tennis court.
The house has uPVC double glazing, mains gas, electric and water supply and the central heating system runs from two condensing combi. boilers.
Set back from the A694, between Shotley Bridge and Ebchester, along a private driveway, the house is well placed for countryside pursuits while also being within easy reach of local amenities including schools, shops, pubs and restaurants. Nearby Consett offers essential facilities while Hexham, Newcastle and Durham are all within 16 miles, and the A1(M) can be easily accessed.
