Summary - APPERLEY BANK HOUSE STOCKSFIELD NE43 7SH
4 bed 3 bath Detached
Substantial four-bedroom character house with extensive grounds and double garage in secluded Stocksfield setting..
Stunning woodland setting on a huge private plot
Set well back from a quiet country lane, this substantial Victorian sandstone house occupies a huge, wooded plot just outside New Ridley. Character details — exposed beams, multiple multi-fuel stoves, original joinery and a five-door Aga — give the house warmth and charm, while three reception rooms and a vaulted garden room provide flexible family living space.
Ground-floor living is practical: a double bedroom/snug with adjoining shower room suits multi-generational families or guests. Upstairs the master bedroom has a Juliet balcony and ensuite wet room; two further double bedrooms and a large family bathroom complete the sleeping accommodation. The layout balances formal entertaining (dining room, separate living room) with relaxed family use (kitchen, utility and garden room).
Outside, gated front and rear driveways, a double garage and extensive terraced gardens that lead into private woodland are the property’s major strengths. Stone-flagged courtyards, mature planting and a children’s play area are already in place, offering immediate enjoyment and scope for landscaping projects.
Practical points: the house runs on oil-fired central heating and has an Energy Performance Rating of D; the thick stone walls appear to lack modern insulation. Broadband speeds are reported as slow, and council tax is above average. These factors, combined with the property’s age, mean buyers should budget for ongoing maintenance and potential energy-efficiency improvements. Overall, this is a handsome family home in a very private rural setting with strong character and clear potential for sympathetic updating.
