4 bed detached house for sale

Old Rectory Close, Tanfield, Stanley DH9

Nestled within a pleasant cul-de-sac in the highly desirable semi-rural village of Tanfield, this outstanding detached bungalow is set on an extensive garden plot and offers a wonderful combination of space, comfort, and modern living.

Upon entering, you are greeted by a welcoming hallway that sets the tone for the rest of the property. A convenient guest WC is located nearby, while the heart of the home is undoubtedly the elegant lounge with its picture window overlooking the gardens, the lounge is both inviting and stylish, featuring a striking wall-mounted modern fireplace as its focal point.

From here, double doors open into a stunning open-plan kitchen and dining area. The dining space provides direct access to the garden, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow, while the kitchen is fitted with a sleek range of units, complemented by a central preparation island with breakfast bar, ideal for casual dining and entertaining. A useful utility room adds to the practicality of the layout.

The property boasts four generously proportioned bedrooms, each offering flexibility for family living, guest accommodation, or home working. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, benefitting from a range of fitted wardrobes. Completing the accommodation is a superb family bathroom, thoughtfully designed with a modern suite including a bath, separate walk-in shower, vanity storage with inset wash basin, and WC with concealed cistern.

One of the home’s most attractive features is without doubt its extensive wrap-around gardens. Predominantly laid to lawn and beautifully enhanced with mature trees, shrubs, and planting, the outdoor space offers both privacy and tranquillity. To the rear, a generous paved patio area provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining, summer entertaining, or simply relaxing in the sunshine. A block paved driveway provides for off street parking.

Ideally situated, the property enjoys the best of both worlds — a village location while still being within convenient reach of local amenities, schools, and transport links, making it convenient for commuting.

This exceptional bungalow is a home of real distinction, offering spacious living, stylish interiors, and outstanding gardens. It is perfectly suited to families, downsizers, or anyone looking to enjoy the benefits of semi-rural living without compromise.

Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate all that this remarkable property has to offer.
