3 Bedroom Semi-Detached House for sale in Consett

Situated on the sought-after Benfieldside Road in Shotley Bridge, this impressive three-bedroom semi-detached 1930s home combines beautiful period character with thoughtful modern updates and wonderfully versatile living space. Lovingly cared for by the current owners, the property offers an excellent family home with attractive gardens, countryside views to the rear and a particularly appealing double-height bay window frontage.

Approached via a generous block-paved driveway, the property has a smart forecourt garden enclosed by an established hedge, creating an attractive first impression. The stunning double-height bay window frontage adds real architectural character, while the composite front door opens into a classic vestibule with tiled flooring and access into the welcoming hallway.

The hallway immediately showcases the period character of the home, with access into the principal reception space. The lounge is warm and inviting, featuring a bay window, cosy carpeting, beautiful coving and an open fire. This flows through into a generous dining area, creating an impressive double reception room with original flooring and French doors opening directly onto the rear decked seating area.

Also accessed from the hallway is a useful ground floor WC, finished with a smart tiled splashback. To the rear, the recently updated kitchen provides a modern and practical space, incorporating a range of new integrated appliances including a dishwasher, fridge freezer and oven. The property also benefits from a Nest heating system.

The floorplan has been thoughtfully adapted by the current owners to provide integral access into the former garage, which has been converted to create highly versatile additional space. The front section currently serves as a utility and storage area, with plumbing, water supply and electricity available for appliances. To the rear is a useful home office or additional living space, currently utilised as an office and complete with French doors opening onto the rear garden. This flexible area could readily adapt to suit a variety of requirements.

The rear garden is enclosed and offers a combination of decked seating areas, lawn and useful cellar storage, providing an excellent outdoor space for relaxing and entertaining. The elevated position also allows for attractive views towards the surrounding countryside.

Upstairs, a spacious landing leads to three well-proportioned bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom is positioned to the front and enjoys the property's impressive bay window, together with fitted wardrobe storage. Bedroom two overlooks the rear and benefits from beautiful views, as well as fitted wardrobe storage, while bedroom three is positioned to the front.

The family bathroom is well appointed with a bath, separate shower, wall-mounted vanity unit and WC, complemented by tiled splashbacks.
