5, Ryedale, Belmont, Durham

Situated within a quiet cul-de-sac, this substantially extended five-bedroom detached family home offers an impressive amount of versatile accommodation, ideal for a growing family.

The property would now benefit from modernisation and updating, but presents an excellent opportunity to create a superb family home of generous proportions. The accommodation briefly comprises an entrance hallway, cloakroom with low-level WC and wash hand basin, and a double-aspect lounge with windows to the front and side, patio doors opening to the rear garden, and a feature fireplace with inset wood-burning stove. Sliding double doors lead through to the garden room, which enjoys French doors onto the rear garden and provides a pleasant seating area overlooking the grounds. The dining room, accessed via double doors, is a spacious entertaining room and features a fireplace with inset gas fire. The open-plan kitchen/diner is fitted with a modern range of wall and base units, incorporating a one-and-a-half bowl stainless steel sink and drainer, space for a gas range cooker, and plumbing and space for a dishwasher. A separate utility room provides further practicality, with a door to the rear garden and space and plumbing for a washing machine, tumble dryer, and American-style fridge freezer.

To the first floor are five bedrooms, one of which offers scope to be divided to create two separate bedrooms, subject to any necessary consents. The main bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes, a walk-in dressing room accessed via a sliding door, and a refitted en suite shower room comprising low-level WC, wash hand basin, double shower cubicle with mains-fed wall-mounted shower, and heated towel rail. The family bathroom is fitted with a suite comprising low-level WC, wash hand basin, panelled bath, and double shower cubicle with mains-fed wall-mounted shower. There is also an additional cloakroom to the landing with low-level WC.

Externally, the property occupies a larger-than-average plot with gardens to the front, side, and rear. The side and rear gardens are predominantly laid to lawn, interspersed with flowering shrubs and established borders, together with a patio area ideal for outdoor seating. A large block-paved driveway provides ample off-street parking and leads to a double garage with electric roller door, light, and power.

Ryedale is a popular cul-de-sac of detached and semi detached houses situated within walking distance of a good range of everyday facilities and amenities which are available within the development itself including post office, public library, doctors surgery and schools for all age groups.
