5, The Mews, Low Road East, Shincliffe

This beautifully modernised executive home is situated within a small private development in the picturesque village of Shincliffe, on the outskirts of Durham City, with scenic riverside walks close by.

Originally a three-bedroom property and now thoughtfully reconfigured to provide two spacious bedrooms, this exceptional home has been extensively updated and modernised in recent years to offer accommodation of the highest standard. Tucked away behind an attractive archway entrance, the property occupies a peaceful position within a private courtyard of similar homes, making it an ideal choice for professionals, couples, or those looking to downsize without compromising on quality.

Conveniently located within easy reach of Durham City by both car and public transport, the property provides excellent access to Durham University campuses, University Hospital Durham, Durham Cathedral, and Durham Train Station.

The accommodation is accessed via a generous entrance hallway and briefly comprises a ground floor WC, a stylish fitted kitchen with integrated appliances and feature lighting, and an impressive lounge/dining room to the rear. This inviting living space features a contemporary media wall with an inset electric fire, attractive wood flooring, and double doors opening onto the rear garden.

To the first floor, the superb principal bedroom benefits from an extensive nine-door range of fitted wardrobes and two double-glazed windows, creating a bright and airy space. The second double bedroom also offers excellent storage with two built-in cupboards/wardrobes. A beautifully appointed contemporary shower room completes the first-floor accommodation.

Outside, the south-facing rear garden has been designed for low-maintenance living, featuring a paved patio and mature planted borders. To the front, the attractive communal courtyard provides access to the garage together with two to three allocated parking spaces. The property further benefits from gas central heating and double glazing throughout.

Shincliffe is a highly desirable conservation village situated just off the A177, approximately one mile from Durham City centre, where an extensive range of shopping, leisure, and recreational facilities can be found. The A177 also provides convenient access to the A1(M) at Bowburn, while the nearby A19 offers excellent road links to major regional centres, making this an ideal location for commuters.
