A highly individual modern property set within a small and exclusive courtyard. This spacious bungalow offers unique accommodation and has the additional benefit of a large first-floor bedroom and en-suite bathroom. Accessed via an archway and clock tower, this newly refurbished property lies within a small block paved courtyard and has secluded mature gardens to the rear. The accommodation includes an entrance hall, a good-sized 24ft living room with a fireplace and double doors opening to a large conservatory, a newly refitted contemporary kitchen/breakfast room with an attractive range of units, Silestone worktops and a good range of integrated appliances, two ground floor bedrooms with fitted furniture and a refitted ground floor shower room/wc. The attic conversion has created a large master bedroom suite, extending to almost 25ft and including a walk-in dressing room/store area and a large, stunning refitted en-suite bathroom/wc. The property also includes an attached double garage with a remote-controlled door. There is gas-fired central heating via radiators with a combination boiler, alarm system and triple glazing to some windows. Further improvements include replacement internal doors, stylish LED lighting and new floor coverings. The charm and character of this exceptional, spacious property must be seen to be appreciated.

The Dene is conveniently situated close to Chester-le-Street, which offers an excellent range of shops, schools and amenities. This small courtyard-style development lies close to the A167 and is therefore very well placed for easy access throughout the region, particularly to Durham City, Gateshead, Newcastle upon Tyne and Sunderland.
