Main Road, Dinnington, Newcastle Upon Tyne

A rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a beautifully restored Grade II listed former schoolhouse with approved planning permission for two additional stone built dwellings to the rear.

Originally constructed in 1871, this unique and characterful property is located in the highly sought after village of Dinnington. Lovingly renovated to an exceptional standard, the main residence retains its historic charm while offering stylish, modern living. Set within a generous plot of approximately 1675m², the site also benefits from full planning consent for further development, making it ideal for both homeowners and investors alike.

The main house features an entrance hall, a cloakroom/WC, and a spacious open plan kitchen and living area that forms the heart of the home. A well appointed double bedroom with en-suite shower room completes the internal accommodation. Outside, the property enjoys wraparound gardens and a private driveway providing ample parking for multiple vehicles.

The site is accessed via a private drive from the main road, which will form a shared entrance for all three dwellings upon completion of the new builds. Planning permission (Ref: 2016/1700/01/DET) is in place for the change of use and extension of the former school (Class D2) to a detached residence (Class C3), alongside the erection of two additional detached homes, revised access arrangements, and associated landscaping and boundary treatments.

Ideally positioned with excellent access to local amenities and major transport links, including Ponteland, Newcastle upon Tyne, and Newcastle International Airport, this property offers a rare blend of heritage, lifestyle, and development potential.
