Old Station House, Sedgefield

Step through the front door of The Old Station House and you are immediately immersed in a rare piece of railway history, reimagined for modern family living.

Originally built in the 1830s, this two-storey manor once served as the stationmaster's house, with a single-storey wing added in later years. These generous spaces combine seamlessly into a substantial 4–5 bedroom detached home – brimming with character, charm, and thoughtfully considered upgrades.

Inside, period details echo its railway heritage. The dining room, lounge, family room, and family bathroom, all boast beautiful curved ceilings reminiscent of a train carriage roof, while graceful arched features nod to the tunnels trains once passed through.

The lounge is an elegant room with an airy feel, perfect for entertaining, while the family room offers a cosy retreat with a log burner, ideal for quiet evenings or curling up with a book.

A long, light-filled garden room provides the perfect vantage point to enjoy the gardens, flooding the home with natural light throughout the day. With its expansive windows and tranquil outlook, it offers a serene retreat for morning coffee, relaxed reading, or simply soaking in the peaceful surroundings. This inviting space further enhances the home's sense of openness and connection to the outdoors.

At the heart of the home you'll find the stunning country-style kitchen, a showpiece of style and practicality. Bathed in natural light, it features high-quality integrated appliances, abundant storage, and generous workspace – perfect for cooking, dining, and social gatherings alike. The layout effortlessly blends functionality with charm, making it the ultimate family hub.

The family bathroom is equally breathtaking, a luxurious sanctuary featuring a central slipper-style freestanding bath for indulgent soaks, paired with a large walk-in shower cubicle, elegant fixtures, and thoughtfully designed space to create a spa-like atmosphere.

On the ground floor, a versatile additional wing offers enormous flexibility – currently a large reception/guest room, it could serve as an annex, games room, or fifth bedroom. While it forms part of the main house, this wing also benefits from its own private entrance, providing independence and privacy. It is accessed internally through a sizeable utility room (easily adapted as a second kitchen) and includes its own shower room, making it ideal for multi-generational living, long-term guests, or flexible home use.

The first floor, which is reached directly from the lane via a bright and welcoming hallway, houses four generously proportioned double bedrooms, one of which provides access to the loft space, offering additional potential for adaptation or storage.

Outside, the property enjoys extensive low-maintenance gardens, gated parking for multiple vehicles, and even comes with an additional strip of land – known as “Land on the South Side of The Old Station House” – offering further potential.

Blending fascinating history with modern comfort, The Old Station House is a truly unique family home, perfect for those seeking space, character, and a story to tell.
