Want to live the high life in the country? This home boasts extensive grounds with its own fishing rights and stables.
Built in 1867, this County Durham home lies in a conservation area with direct access to the River Derwent, which the owners can fish as they please.
It has seven bedrooms, two of which are in an annexe separate to the detached property. Inside, the decor is described as “stylish, refined and traditional” throughout and there are extensive grounds to enjoy outside.
Estate agents Strutt and Parker reckon this is a dream home for anybody looking to live out in the country, but within easy reach of Newcastle and other towns.
It is a short car journey to the Tyne Valley, Newcastle and Gateshead.
The home will set you back £1.5m, but there are plenty of reasons why.
In addition to extensive grounds, the fishing rights and stables, there is a lot to brag about inside.
The ground floor has reception rooms, including a drawing room, sitting room, family room, formal dining room and a conservatory. In the annexe there is a play room - which could be used as a dining room - and a study/lounge.
The main kitchen is decked out with solid wood worktops, an Aga and a more informal dining space. The annexe has its own kitchen.
Outside the landscaped gardens feature split level lawns, footpaths, terraces and a Victorian pond. The grounds are surrounded by mature trees, and extend towards a wooded area, meadow and land for grazing animals.
