An immaculately presented four bedroom end link--detached period property providing bright, spacious and versatile living accommodation located in the popular area of Birtley, Chester-Le-Street. The property has been sympathetically refurbished and modernised to a high standard whilst retaining an abundance of original character features such as beautiful stained glass windows, high ceilings, column radiators, decorative ceiling rose and coving, high skirting boards and parquet flooring. Some of the new upgrades include a new roof, a full new central heating system and boiler, new windows which are double glazed (besides the stained glass windows) and new doors throughout.

Internally the property comprises a welcoming and airy entrance hall with carpeted flooring, stairs to the first floor landing and an understairs storage cupboard. The lounge offers both spacious and cosy living space with a front aspect bay window, carpeted flooring and a closed recessed fireplace. The dining room equally offers ample space for a formal dining table and chairs and for further furniture with a front aspect bay window, original parquet flooring and a recessed fireplace, with open access to the stunning kitchen fitted with a modern range of shaker-style units, wood worktops, a Belfast sink basin, integrated high spec appliances and access to two utility rooms each offering space for storage and appliances. There is also a good sized study ideal for home working or for use as a snug or additional bedroom with access to the rear garden, and completing the ground floor is a modern cloakroom WC with a wash hand basin set into a vanity unit.

To the first floor there is a split-level landing with a beautiful stained glass window and access to all four bedrooms, three of which are generous doubles and one single with a modern en-suite to the master bedroom, and a luxury four piece family bathroom suite comprising a WC, a wash hand basin set into a vanity unit, a deep-set bath with a handheld shower and a step-in shower with a rainfall shower, a handheld shower and a glass screen.

Externally the property benefits from a beautifully presented garden to the front with elevated views over the valley, pebbled pathways and bed, a range of well-stocked and established plants, flowers, shrubs, boxed hedgerows and trees which are very well-maintained, as well as stone walling and pedestrian gates to both the front and side of the boundary. To the rear there is a low-maintenance courtyard/parking area with access via a roller shutter and access to a double garage conversion which features double glazing, power and lighting offering versatile uses.

The property is set upon an elevated plot boasting far-reaching views across the valley and is just a short walk from Birtley high street offering a range of shops, amenities and transport links to Durham and Newcastle.
