Robinsons have the pleasure of offering to the sales market, with NO FORWARD CHAIN, this delightful Grade II listed, two bedroom country cottage, occupying a charming position within the St John’s Chapel. The property presents a wonderful opportunity for those seeking a characterful rural retreat, whilst still enjoying the convenience of being within easy walking distance of the village centre, local shop and two welcoming public houses.
Full of charm and character, the cottage retains many of the traditional features one would hope to find within a historic countryside home, including attractive exposed beamed ceilings and a characterful solid fuel stove. The property also enjoys lovely views over the surrounding countryside, adding to its peaceful and picturesque setting.
Further benefits include an enclosed garden to the side with a pleasant outlook, together with a hardstanding area providing parking for approximately three vehicles, situated just across the road.
The accommodation briefly comprises an entrance porch leading into the welcoming hallway, with staircase rising to the first floor. The charming kitchen/dining room is fitted with a range of wall, base and drawer units, incorporating a hob and oven, dishwasher and fridge freezer. An inset sink is positioned beneath a window overlooking the surrounding fields. There is also ample space for a dining table.
The inviting lounge provides generous space for comfortable seating and features a solid fuel stove, creating a warm and cosy focal point, together with a window overlooking the front aspect. A useful utility room provides space for a washing machine and tumble dryer, with a door leading directly out to the enclosed garden.
Internal accommodation continued
To the first floor are two well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive in size and could comfortably accommodate two double beds, if required, and also benefits from a useful storage cupboard and loft hatch. The loft space is insulated and benefits from lighting.
The bathroom has a traditional three-piece suite comprising a charming roll-top bath with electric shower over, wash hand basin set within a vanity unit and WC.
Outside
Externally, there is a small garden area to the front, whilst the principal enclosed garden is situated to the side of the cottage and provides a lovely space in which to sit and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. The hardstanding parking area is located immediately across the road, just a short stroll from the property.
Location
St John’s Chapel is a particularly attractive village, surrounded by the stunning countryside of Upper Weardale and having a primary school and a vibrant community resource in the town hall with varied activities throughout the year including a cinema on occasions. The cottage is ideally positioned for those who enjoy an outdoor lifestyle, with numerous scenic walking routes and bridle paths accessible close by. Despite its rural setting, the village itself provides everyday amenities, including a village shop and public houses, all within walking distance.
The larger towns of Consett, Crook and Bishop Auckland are also within convenient travelling distance, making this an idyllic country home whilst remaining well connected to surrounding areas.
