This four-bedroom barn conversion sits privately behind gated grounds in Bearpark, about three miles from Durham city centre. Set on a large plot with a paddock and small orchard, the house combines period character with practical modern upgrades such as double glazing, a gas boiler and a sun lounge that opens onto paddock views.
The ground floor offers flexible family living: a country-style kitchen, dining room, formal lounge, study, utility, and a bright sun-lounge with a lofted ceiling. Upstairs the principal suite includes fitted wardrobes, a dressing room and en-suite; three further bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the sleeping accommodation.
Practical benefits include a double detached garage, large gated driveway with multiple parking spaces, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for commuters and home workers. Local schooling includes Bearpark Primary and Durham Johnston Comprehensive, and the A167 gives straightforward road links to Durham and beyond.
Buyers should note a few material points: the property sits in a coal mining reporting area (further searches advised), the paddock has agricultural restrictions, and the original solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation. The area shows signs of deprivation and the property falls within a selective licensing area; an independent survey is recommended to confirm building condition and running costs.
