Set back from the main road in Marley Hill, this newly refurbished five-bedroom stone cottage blends period character with contemporary living. The open-plan kitchen/diner/living area and additional living room — both with wood-burning stoves — create flexible spaces for family life and entertaining, while large windows and polished wooden floors add warmth and light. The main bedroom includes an ensuite and a potential walk-in wardrobe, supporting comfortable family routines.
Externally, the property sits on a large plot with lawned levels, a riven stone patio and mature front and rear gardens. A substantial double garage and private driveway provide secure parking and storage — useful for family vehicles and hobbies. The house enjoys pleasant views over the Tanfield Railway and a quiet, semi-rural aspect on the town fringe.
Practical details: the home is freehold, immaculately renovated and arranged over two floors with ample built-in storage. There is no flood risk and mobile signal is excellent. Local schools include several rated Good or Outstanding, making the location well suited to families.
Notable caveats: council tax is high and broadband speeds are average, which may affect home working. The garden is multi-level with steps between levels, requiring consideration for very young children or mobility limitations. Buyers should note services and appliances have not been independently tested here and measurements are for guidance.
