Chester Le Street, DH3 3JU

A substantial townhouse in a highly sought-after street in the popular southern end of town. The location offers an attractive open southerly outlook to the front with far-reaching views from the upper floors. The property has been substantially improved and altered, offering outstanding quality and appeal due to its superb character features, including high ceilings, stripped internal doors, fireplaces, and a Stovax wood-burning stove. The kitchen and bathroom have both been refitted to an excellent standard, providing a clean, contemporary feel to the house. Another particular feature of this property is the covered area to the rear, which has been designed to create a great space for entertaining with lighting, decking, seating areas and a wood-burning stove. The specification has been upgraded to include gas central heating via radiators with a Baxi combination boiler and uPVC double glazing. This is complemented by an excellent standard of interior design and presentation in keeping with the property's age and appeal. In our opinion, the property must be viewed to be appreciated. The accommodation comprises a lobby, hall, lounge with bay window, dining room with inglenook fireplace and wood burning stove, and a refitted kitchen with white high gloss units, black granite worktops and integrated appliances. On the first floor are two double-sized bedrooms, with the main bedroom extending to 17ft. The large refitted bathroom features a white suite with a freestanding slipper bath and a separate shower cubicle. The forecourt garden provides an attractive southerly-facing seating area. This is a very individual and highly appealing character property, and early viewing is highly recommended. Orchard Terrace is a desirable street of bay-windowed townhouses situated at the southern end of the town centre. It is within walking distance of the town centre shops, schools and amenities. Chester-le-Street is an excellent commuter base with good road links to Durham City, Gateshead, Newcastle upon Tyne and Sunderland.
