Glenside, Shotley Bridge, Consett, DH8

Occupying one of the largest and most desirable plots in this quiet, well-established development, this detached three-bedroom bungalow offers a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial home with exciting scope for development and extension (subject to the necessary planning consents).

Set on a generous ½-acre garden plot, the property enjoys a wonderfully private and tranquil setting, complete with a magnificent Oak tree and regular visits from local deer – creating a truly beautiful place to relax and enjoy nature.

Although modernisation is required, the property has been maintained to a high standard throughout, with many key features already updated, making it the ideal blank canvas for those looking to personalise or expand a forever home.

Shotley Bridge is a highly desirable residential village, well regarded for its welcoming community, character, and local amenities. The village boasts a charming selection of shops, cafés, and services, along with infant and junior schools, and an active tennis and cricket club.

Just 1.5 miles away, Consett town centre provides a wider range of supermarkets, high street stores, restaurants, and leisure facilities. The area is surrounded by scenic countryside, with numerous popular walking and cycling routes nearby, including along the River Derwent, and extending into Northumberland, just across the river.
With excellent road links, the property is ideally placed for commuters, with Newcastle and Durham both within 16 miles.

A rare chance to secure a generous plot with outstanding potential in one of County Durham’s most sought-after villages. Early viewing is highly recommended.
