This double-fronted stone cottage sits at the heart of Shotley Bridge, moments from riverside walks, shops and well-rated schools. The house blends original Georgian character — sash windows, exposed stone, fireplaces and beams — with practical modern updates including a refitted kitchen and a contemporary bathroom. Off-street parking for two cars via a cobbled alley adds rare convenience in the village centre.
Accommodation is arranged over multiple levels and includes three double bedrooms, a larger principal bedroom with vaulted ceiling and snug/storage accessed by a wooden ladder, two reception rooms with working fireplaces and a utility area. The layout and generous room sizes suit a growing family seeking character, or buyers looking for a high-demand rental in a very low-crime, affluent area.
Notable points to check: the property is constructed of traditional sandstone/limestone with no known cavity insulation, and the location falls within a Coal Mining Reporting Area — buyers should commission a chartered survey and relevant searches. The home has a single family bathroom and shared rear alley access; some buyers may want further modernisation or insulation works to improve efficiency.
Material facts: freehold tenure, council tax band C, mains gas central heating plus open fires/wood-burning stove, allocated rear parking for two vehicles, very low flood risk. A survey and legal checks are recommended to confirm building condition, any covenants and mining-related matters before purchase.
