Richmond Close, Shildon, DL4

A rare opportunity has arisen to purchase a substantial individually designed Three Bedroom Detached Family Home, occupying a generous plot, situated at the head of a small exclusive residential development.

The market town of Shildon, which is home to the National Railway Museum, is approximately 4 miles southeast of Bishop Auckland and 9 miles north of Darlington. The property has good transport links with the A6072 trunk road giving access to the A1(M) for travel North and South. There are also rail links to both Darlington and Bishop Auckland. The ever expanding Tindale Crescent Retail and Leisure Park, which will soon include a multiplex cinema and bowling alley, is a short drive away.

Warmed via Gas Central Heating and having uPVC Double Glazing throughout, the internal layout briefly comprises; Entrance Hallway, Cloakroom/Wc, Lounge, Dining Room and Breakfast Kitchen.

To the first floor, a Family Bathroom and Three Double Bedrooms (all of which are fitted with plantation shutters) the master of which boasts a Dressing Area and En-Suite Shower Room/Wc.

Externally to the front of the house there is an open plan garden. A lengthy block paved driveway, providing added off road parking facilities, leads to an attached Garage.

To the rear, a large garden, which is laid to lawn with a paved patio area.
