Summary - WEST BANK, STOCKSFIELD, NEW RIDLEY NE43 7RQ
5 bed 1 bath Detached
Large detached house with paddocks, stables and far-reaching Tyne Valley views.
Circa 5.19 acres paddock with three stables and tack room
Set in a sought-after hamlet on the edge of the Tyne Valley, West Bank occupies a substantial plot with circa 5.19 acres of paddock, three stables, tack room and outbuildings — a genuine equestrian-ready country home. The house sits within beautifully maintained, multi-level gardens and enjoys open countryside views to front and rear, plus private gated driveway parking and a detached double garage with power.
The mid-20th-century layout provides generously proportioned living spaces: a long living/dining room with French doors and sliding doors to the garden, a snug, kitchen with large windows and a convenient ground-floor cloakroom/WC. Upstairs are five bedrooms (four doubles) and a family bathroom; four bedrooms provide built-in storage. The property’s size and arrangement suit a family seeking space, those with equestrian interests, or buyers wanting to adapt and modernise to taste.
Practical points to note: the property requires updating in places and would benefit from modernisation to bring interior finishes and services in line with current standards. The EPC rating is F. There is inconsistent information about heating in the paperwork (both mains gas boiler and electric central heating are referenced) — buyers should verify the current heating system and service histories. Council tax is described as quite expensive and broadband speeds are average despite excellent mobile signal.
Overall this is a rare rural offering: a substantial, adaptable family home with strong outdoor and equestrian appeal, considerable scope to improve energy performance and interiors, and privacy and views that will appeal to countryside buyers. Interested parties should view to assess condition and confirm service specifications and running costs.
