Description
This terraced three-bedroom property, is a classic Barnard Castle house from a bygone era, with many original features preserved inside and out.
As soon as you lay eyes on the front elevation, its curb appeal will inspire. As one walks through the door, the words, "cosy and characterful", immediately spring to mind.
The reception rooms are a good size, bearing in mind it is a family home. The lounge can accommodate large settees and benefits from a large multi-fuel stove - perfect for comfy evenings in with your loved ones. The dining room leads straight from a fully-fitted kitchen, and, being south-facing, benefits from morning sunshine and is bathed in light.
An inviting hallway leads to a conservatory of considerable charm, where informal dining and soirees, drinks parties and barbeques could be beautifully accommodated.
The conservatory leads the eye out to a rear patio which then takes us down a heavenly, walled and lawned garden, full of mature plants and shrubs. A delightful adventure invites all the way to the very bottom, where one can finally stand and enjoy a further view of fields and moorside. From here we are reminded that Barnard Castle sits just on the edge of an AONB (Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty), where one finds oneself amongst rich countryside, with plenty of mature woods and interesting walks, all teaming with wildlife, including some rare species.
The property has three very large bedrooms which all easily accommodate a double bed and plenty of storage. The bathroom has a shower and beautiful bath, itself a haven for nights of relaxation.
The house is a short, walkable distance from the epicentre of Barnard Castle, close to all amenities. Within this famous historic market town, you will find a range of artisan and mainstream shops which will enthral and satisfy you on practical and creative levels simultaneously.
The property lies about 500 metres from The Bowes Museum, and a mile from a 12th-century Premonstratensian abbey. The centre of the town is framed by the famous castle from where the town gets its name. In short there is a lot to see in terms of diverse, beautiful architecture, and a lot to learn historically with in this famous market town. It is also a thriving community with many social outlets. To mention just a few, there is Teesdale Operatic Society,The Castle Players, The Golf Club, Athletics Club and U3a. There is an absolute flood of excellent primary and secondary schools to support buyers with growing families making it a prime area to invest.
It is completely possible to commute frequently; mainline rail to London Kings Cross starts only 25 minutes away from this property in Darlington, and similarly it takes just 15 minutes in the car to reach the A1 at Scotch Corner.
