Set on Main Road in Stocksfield, this two-bedroom period home blends original character with practical everyday living. The double-aspect sitting room, original fireplaces and fitted cupboards give immediate period charm, while a utility room and functional kitchen add sensible modern conveniences. The south-facing front garden and stone patio create a sunny outdoor space for relaxing or small-scale planting.
The property is freehold, offers off-street parking for up to three vehicles and has scope to increase space by extending into the loft, subject to the usual planning consents. Double glazing is installed to the south-facing windows and door, and heating is via a mains-gas boiler and radiators. The plot is small and easy to maintain, and the house sits in a low-crime, affluent hamlet with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Buyers should note the property’s EPC rating of E, indicating lower energy efficiency than newer homes, and that much of the interior will benefit from updating to bring fixtures, fittings and decor up to modern standards. The house dates from the 1930s–1940s and has character-style features that may require sympathetic maintenance. There are original stone outbuildings to the rear that suit storage or workshop use but will need ongoing upkeep.
This home will suit a buyer seeking period character close to village amenities, good commuter links and schools, with the opportunity to add value through targeted renovation or a loft conversion (subject to consent). It’s particularly well placed for families wanting community facilities and outdoor activities, or for buyers looking for a manageable, characterful property in a prospering rural location.
