Description

A Rare Opportunity in the Heart of Shincliffe – A Stunning Two-Bedroom Home with an Attached One-Bed Cottage

Shincliffe is one of County Durham’s most desirable villages, situated just over a mile southeast of Durham City Centre along the A177. Designated a conservation area, this historic and picturesque village offers a charming setting with a village green featuring seasonal planting and seating. Locals enjoy access to a garden centre, two well-regarded pub restaurants, and the convenience of being only moments away from the vibrant city of Durham — home to the iconic cathedral and castle, excellent schools, and a world-renowned university.

This unique property comprises a beautifully renovated two-bedroom semi-detached home with an adjoining one-bedroom cottage — a conversion of the former village nursery. The current owners have meticulously transformed the property to the highest standard, combining thoughtful design with stylish finishes throughout.

Main House

Upon entering the main home, you'll be impressed by the light-filled open-plan layout. Large double doors open from the lounge and kitchen area onto the private patio, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living spaces. The kitchen is a bespoke, high-spec design fitted specifically for this property featuring a BORA hob and Quartze Gold bench coverings. A cleverly concealed panelled door leads to a utility room, cloakroom, and WC, all equipped with SIEMENS appliances and ample storage — ideal for contemporary living.

The ground floor also features a spacious double bedroom with an en-suite shower room and WC, plus built-in storage. Upstairs, the master suite boasts a large double bedroom, a stylish en-suite shower room, and a dressing area. All bathrooms are equipped with high quality villeroy & Boch.

The private courtyard offers an outdoor cooking area and is the perfect spot to relax and unwind after a long day.

The Cottage

The attached one-bedroom cottage, formerly a storage area, has been converted into a charming self-contained residence. Currently let on a 12-month tenancy from April 2025 at £1,250pcm, it presents an excellent opportunity for additional income.

The cottage offers an open-plan lounge and kitchen on the ground floor, with stairs leading to a spacious double bedroom and a fully fitted en-suite shower room.

This exceptional property is ideal for buyers looking to live in a characterful village home while benefiting from rental income or having a separate space for guests, extended family, or even a home office.
