Property description

Priced to reflect the opportunity, this is a rare chance to secure a generous plot and create a bespoke, long-term family home in a beautiful setting.

Occupying one of the largest plots within this quiet, established development, this detached three-bedroom bungalow sits on approximately ½ an acre, offering exceptional scope to extend, reconfigure or redevelop (subject to the necessary consents) — a rare opportunity to create a substantial forever home.

The generous, private gardens feature a magnificent oak tree and regular deer visitors, providing a peaceful setting and ample space to grow into. While modernisation is required, the property has been well maintained, offering a strong foundation for improvement. The level of updating needed is reflected in the competitive asking price, presenting outstanding value for a plot

of this size and potential within the desirable location of Shotley Bridge. With its local shops, cafés, schools and sports clubs, and just 1.5 miles from Consett, the location combines community charm with everyday convenience. Excellent road links place both Newcastle upon Tyne and Durham within easy reach.
