Flowing seamlessly from here, the dining area comfortably accommodates a table and chairs, ideal for hosting memorable dinners, while providing direct open-plan access to the heart of the home: the superb kitchen.
The kitchen is a culinary delight, thoughtfully designed with a striking mix of contrasting units, ample work surfaces, and space for a range-style oven. A casual dining table fits perfectly, creating a warm and sociable space for everyday family meals. For added practicality, a utility room ensures household tasks remain discreetly out of sight.
A particular highlight of the ground floor is the stunning garden room, with bi-folding doors that blur the line between indoor and outdoor living, opening directly onto the beautifully landscaped rear garden.
Ascending to the first floor, the spacious landing leads to four generously proportioned bedrooms, a dedicated study, and a luxurious family bathroom. The principal suite boasts an en-suite shower room, while the main bathroom offers a spa-like sanctuary, featuring a freestanding bath, double shower enclosure, vanity unit with hand basin, and a concealed-cistern WC.
Externally, the property continues to impress. To the front, there is block-paved courtyard parking, while to the rear lies a south-facing landscaped garden—a true haven for outdoor living. This includes a paved entertaining terrace, a decked sun area, manicured lawn, and a charming summer house. A generously sized garage offers additional secure parking and storage.
Perfectly situated for access to the array of amenities in Houghton le Spring, as well as transport connections to Sunderland, Newcastle, and Durham.
