The Briary, Shotley Bridge

A charming three bedroom semi-detached home with driveway, detached garage and gardens to the front and rear, this period property is brimming with character and offers wonderful potential for transformation. Available with no onward chain, it presents a rare opportunity to create a striking family residence.

An original stained-glass door welcomes you into a vestibule and onward into a hallway with beautiful panelling, setting the tone for the character within. The front lounge, with its bay window and stained-glass detail, is warmed by an original fireplace, offering the perfect setting for a cosy retreat. To the rear, the dining room is a space made for gatherings, complete with alcove storage, a bayed door feature and the back boiler. Beyond lies the kitchen, which has been historically extended to create an additional dining area with scope to reconfigure and design a kitchen and utility space tailored to modern living. A useful pantry and cloaks cupboard provide practical storage.

The first floor reveals a light and airy landing with side stained-glass window, three comfortable bedrooms and a family bathroom with a classic white suite. The principal bedroom enjoys countryside views from its bayed window - an idyllic outlook to wake up to. Original timber-framed windows enhance the home's traditional charm.

Outside, the property is framed by a front garden with established hedging, wrought iron gates and a driveway leading to a detached garage. To the rear, a tiered garden provides a private haven, offering plenty of scope for landscaping, outdoor entertaining or family play space.

Awaiting grant of probate, this home is offered with no onward chain and is ready for its next chapter. With its generous proportions, period detail and scope for improvement, it is a wonderful canvas for anyone looking to create the home of their dreams.

This much-loved home has been in the same family for many years, holding cherished memories within its walls. Full of character and warmth, it is now ready to welcome new owners to shape its next chapter
