Set in the peaceful village of High Etherley, this three-bedroom semi-detached house offers practical family living with generous outdoor space. The ground floor has separate living and dining rooms, a modern kitchen and a useful utility room with internal access to the garage — helpful for muddy boots after countryside walks. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom; the master benefits from fitted wardrobes.
The property sits on a decent plot with a double driveway and single garage for off-street parking. Gardens are a notable asset: established planting to the front and an extensive wild garden to the side that creates a private wildlife haven. The rear garden has lawned and paved areas suitable for outdoor seating and family activity. EPC Grade C, mains gas central heating and double glazing contribute to reasonable running costs.
Buyers should note the side garden is currently untidy and will need landscaping or regular maintenance to be fully usable. The home has one family bathroom and is an average-sized property for its era (1950s–1960s construction), so growing families may find space modest. The age of the double glazing is unspecified and could be considered when planning future improvements.
Overall this freehold home will suit families or countryside-seekers wanting a comfortable base with scope to personalise gardens and interiors. Fast broadband, very low local crime and proximity to highly rated primary schools add practical everyday appeal.
