There’s an integrated fridge freezer, plus a washing machine and dishwasher which will be included within the sale. The electric hob and oven are also integrated. There is an additional storage area to the end of the kitchen which is currently home to a further solid wooden work bench to be used as a food preparation area, however, this bench could be removed to open up the space should the new owners require it.Dining Room3.36m x 3.22mThe dining room is open plan with the kitchen which makes for a really sociable living space, perfect for families, couples or entertaining. There's real wooden flooring with under floor insulation and windows on 2 sides of the room ensuring there is plenty of light. A log burner sits within the fireplace which is set below a beautiful wooden mantel piece. There are also 2 radiators which are supplied by the air source heat pump, making this a very warm and inviting room.Hall0.81m x 0.94mThe small hallway is positioned in between the dining room and living room, and gives access to the front door and staircase.Living Room2.74m x 3.8mFrom the dining room you pass through the hallway via solid oak doors in to the living room. This room also benefits from windows on 2 sides and features bespoke wooden blinds with magnetic closures, which can also be found in the dining room. There's a beautiful Victorian style fireplace which has had a miniature log burner installed within it. The flooring is again real wood with under floor insulation and the deep window sills which sit within the thick stone walls of this cottage are also a fantastic feature.Landing1.71m x 1.42mThe staircase rises from the hallway to the landing, from which the bathroom and all 3 bedrooms are accessed. All doorways are again solid oak and the ceiling has been tastefully decorated with wooden panelling and then painted, a style that can be found in many properties in Weardale of this period.Bathroom2.48m x 1.4mLike the rest of this house, the bathroom is immaculate. The current owners have opted for a large walk in shower instead of a bath, however this could be reversed should the new owners require a bathtub. The shower enclosure tiling is continued the full length of the wall, providing a practical splash back for the hand basin also. There's a vertical radiator in the middle of the opposite wall and next to the WC. The window in this room is narrow but tall, and with the deep windowsill is a beautiful feature. Frosted glass provides privacy.Bedroom 13.02m x 3.39mThe master bedroom has 2 windows giving views out over the surrounding hills. There's a traditional fireplace and although it's in working condition, the chimney has been capped, it makes a nice feature. In recent years floor to ceiling wardrobes have been installed in an alcove on one side of the fireplace and shelving in the other. A unique feature of this property is the staircase to the storage loft space, this staircase is hidden behind a partition wall within the master bedroom. The staircase certainly makes it a lot easier to place and remove storage items, and the storage area is fully boarded, with power and lighting. The void between the first-floor ceilings and loft floor is fully insulated.Bedroom 22.82m x 3.26mThe second bedroom is another double room and like the master bedroom features a fireplace which has been capped. This room also benefits from views over the hills, in the same direction as the first bedroom. The ceilings are high and the decoration is neutral and to a high standard, as it is throughout the property.Bedroom 3The 3rd bedroom would be suitable as a child's bedroom only as it is very small. If not required as a bedroom it may be more suited to an office or dressing room. There is a large window and the outlook is over adjoining rooftops.GardenTo the side of the property is a raised lawned garden which is extremely well kept. The garden benefits from a patio, garden shed and storage area. It must be noted that the path between the garden and house does have a right of way which is usable by the adjacent properties. Such rights of way are very common in the area and in many cases date back to the mid 1800s.YardThe front of the property opens out on to an enclosed courtyard which is also well maintained with a mix of paving and gravel. Stone walling wraps around the courtyard and to the rear of the property there is a narrow access passage which is home to the outside tap. It must be noted this rear passage can be used as an emergency escape route for an adjacent property, however this is not a principle access right.Parking - Off streetA great asset of this property is the gravelled private parking area which is suitable for 2 vehicles. Having private parking in this area with a cottage of this period is quite rare and very sought after.BrochuresBrochure 1
