Set in the peaceful village of Butterknowle, this well‑proportioned four‑bedroom detached home sits on a generous plot with a double garage and ample gravel driveway. Built in the early 2000s and maintained to a high standard, the house offers spacious living including a 21ft living room, conservatory, large dining kitchen and three bathrooms — practical for busy family life or multi‑generation living.
The layout is family focused: ground‑floor bedrooms (one en‑suite) plus two large first‑floor bedrooms and an additional shower room provide flexible accommodation. Large windows and the conservatory bring plenty of daylight, while the enclosed lawned garden and patio create a safe outdoor space for children and pets. Broadband speeds are reported as fast, supporting home working.
Practical points to note: the property uses oil‑fired central heating (not connected to a community supply), council tax sits in Band E (above average), and there is no reliable mobile signal on site. Externally the stone construction and tiled roof appear well maintained, but purchasers should factor ongoing oil costs and confirm servicing history for the boiler and garage doors.
Overall this is a turn‑key village home with room for family life, good parking and storage, and scope for modest landscaping or internal updates if desired. It will suit buyers seeking spacious accommodation in a quiet rural setting with easy access to Barnard Castle and surrounding countryside.
