Six-bedroom extended bungalow with annexe, one-acre gardens and stunning rural views.
Approximately one acre of private, elevated gardens and mature planting
Set on about an acre in one of County Durham’s most attractive villages, Casa Suena is a substantial extended bungalow with far-reaching countryside views. The single-storey layout delivers generous living space — including an impressive kitchen/dining room, elegant living room with log burner, a games room with bar and terrace, and an upstairs annexe — making it well suited to multigenerational family life or home-working. The plot and elevated position are major assets, offering privacy, mature planting and wide vistas.
The house retains many mid‑century features such as exposed beams, wood panelling and solid oak doors, while the fitted kitchen and island show recent updates. Practical extras include a double garage with electric door, multiple off‑street parking areas and substantial storage/utility rooms. The annexe above the games room provides independent accommodation with its own kitchen and bathroom — helpful for guests or as rental potential.
Buyers should be aware this is a characterful, older property that will suit a purchaser wanting to modernise, reconfigure or extend: the vendor notes the option to extend, renovate or rebuild subject to planning permission. The home currently rates F on the EPC and sits in Council Tax Band G, so energy and running costs are likely to be higher than modern equivalents. Broadband is average and local services are rural, although mobile signal is excellent.
Overall, Casa Suena offers rare space and privacy in a sought‑after rural village. It will particularly appeal to families seeking long‑term space and scope to personalise a substantial home, or buyers prepared to invest to improve energy performance and update interiors.
