Summary - 81 VILLA REAL ROAD CONSETT DH8 6BL
5 bed 3 bath Detached
Spacious period home with contemporary entertaining extension and gated private plot.
Five double bedrooms across multiple well-proportioned floors
This substantial five-bedroom Victorian detached house marries original period proportions with a striking contemporary extension designed for entertaining. High ceilings, bay windows and ornate plasterwork give the principal reception rooms an immediate sense of grandeur, while the open-plan kitchen/living/dining areas with vaulted roofs and bi-fold doors create an exceptional indoor–outdoor flow. The grounds are private and generous, with porcelain terraces, a covered entertaining area and hot tub, plus a separate games room with a fully fitted bar and a detached studio/gym.
The principal suite is spacious and well appointed with a walk-in wardrobe and marble-effect en-suite. Three further bedrooms, two additional bathrooms, a dressing room and a study provide flexible family space. Practical features include a single garage, gated gravel driveway and mains gas central heating. The plot and internal layout offer scope for further adaptation to suit multi-generational living or a high-end home-office setup.
Important practical points: the house is a pre-1900 solid brick construction with assumed lack of cavity insulation, which may affect running costs and energy performance (current EPC band D). Broadband speeds are reported slow. Council Tax is Band F and local crime levels are above average; these are factual considerations for families and buyers budgeting ongoing costs and security. Overall, this is a rare, large period home blending character and contemporary entertaining spaces for buyers seeking scale and privacy close to regional centres.
