Summary - SCHOOL HOUSE FARM CHAPEL CHORLTON NEWCASTLE ST5 5JN
4 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Unique village home with paddock, outbuildings and dramatic glass-fronted kitchen.
Period features retained: oak panelling, sandstone walls, exposed beams
A striking, characterful home set in a peaceful Chapel Chorlton hamlet, combining original period features with high-quality contemporary improvements. The property extends over three floors and offers generous living space including a vaulted, glass-fronted open-plan kitchen with a huge granite island and LPG-fired AGA, a formal dining room and a sitting room with a wood-burning stove.
The grounds extend to about one acre and include a fenced half-acre paddock with a timber stable, useful brick-and-tile outbuilding currently used for storage and gym space, and a detached double garage with electric doors. The plot and outbuildings are major draws for buyers seeking space for horses, hobbies or flexible storage/annexe potential.
Buyers should note some practical issues: the EPC is F, main heating is electric room heaters with an LPG AGA, and the property has solid brick walls with no known insulation. Council tax is described as expensive. These factors will affect running costs and should be considered alongside the home’s strong character and rural setting.
Set in a sought-after village with a green, pond and church, the house is about seven miles from Newcastle and has good road and rail links nearby. Fast broadband supports remote working; local mobile signal is average. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the combination of period detail, contemporary finishes and generous grounds.
