Property description

Situated in the highly regarded southern end of town, Orchard Gardens is a cul-de-sac development with houses and bungalows which offer exceptional room sizes and layouts. Occupying a large corner plot with good sized mature westerly facing back gardens and ample block paved parking, this extended semi detached house provides very impressive living space over two floors, including three reception rooms, four bedrooms and two bathrooms, making it an ideal family home. The ground floor has a central hall which leads to the spacious living room, measuring 20ft and including a living flame fire and fireplace. Double doors open to the separate dining room, which has large windows overlooking the attractive back garden. The separate family room has French doors to the garden and would also make an ideal home working space. The kitchen/breakfast room has cream coloured units and integrated appliances. A useful utility room is also situated to the rear, and leads to a ground floor shower room/wc. The large integral garage measures over 16ft. The first floor has four bedrooms, three of which are very generously proportioned double rooms, and a large family bathroom, with a white suite and shower enclosure. Commanding an elevated site, the front bedrooms have views towards Chester le Street cricket ground and Lumley Castle. The specification includes gas central heating with a replacement combination boiler and uPVC double glazing. The property is offered at an exceptionally attractive asking price for such a spacious family home in one of the town's most sought-after locations.

Orchard Gardens is ideally situated within walking distance of Chester le Street's town centre amenities and the attractive Riverside Park area adjacent to the River Wear and First Class County Cricket ground. The town is an excellent commuter base with good road links to Durham City, Gateshead, Newcastle upon Tyne and Sunderland. The railway station is situated on the main east coast line linking London and Edinburgh and provides rapid commuting to Durham City and Newcastle upon Tyne.
