Property description

Set within a prestigious estate in Shotley Bridge, tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on Sherwood Close, this substantial five-bedroom family home offers generous living accommodation, excellent outdoor space and a superb setting. Ideal for growing families or those seeking a larger home, the property is ideally positioned close to the local pubs, shops and highly regarded schools, whilst enjoying a peaceful residential location.

Downstairs, the property opens into a grand entrance hallway with excellent storage options and access to the principal living accommodation. The house-length living room provides an impressive space for relaxing and entertaining, with ample room for a range of furniture.

The large modern kitchen/diner is particularly well suited to family life, featuring a wealth of fitted units providing excellent storage, generous worktop space and French doors opening directly onto the rear garden. There is also a downstairs WC, utility area, and a cosy snug/second sitting room, providing valuable additional living space and flexibility for a growing family.

Upstairs, there are five well-proportioned bedrooms, with four of the five offering good-sized double accommodation. Each benefits from either fitted wardrobes or useful built-in storage cupboards. The principal bedroom further benefits from its own en-suite shower room, while a family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.

Externally, the property continues to impress, with off-street parking, a garage providing excellent additional storage, and a truly stunning rear garden. The garden offers a large lawned area, a generous patio ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining, plus a raised section incorporating a workshop/summerhouse, creating a versatile space for hobbies, working from home or enjoying the garden throughout the year.

A substantial five-bedroom family home, offering generous and versatile accommodation both inside and out, in one of Shotley Bridge's sought-after residential settings.

Sherwood Close is situated off Ascot Road at the edge of the popular 'Racecourse' estate in Shotley Bridge, just off Snowsgreen Road and approximately three-quarters-of-a-mile from the village centre, where there is an excellent range of local boutiques and other shopping and recreational facilities. It is also well placed for access to Consett town centre, and to the regional centres of Durham and Newcastle - both within 16 miles - via the A691 and A694 or A692 respectively. There are local countryside walks, including the nearby Derwent Walk, and cycle routes, such as the Coast-to-Coast, within the area, while there is also access to Northumberland across the River Derwent and along the nearby A68.
