About this property

Occupying an impressive and substantial plot, this individually designed and built four-bedroom detached family home enjoys far-reaching countryside views and offers spacious, well-presented accommodation throughout.

The property has been thoughtfully modernised and updated by the current owners, creating a generous and versatile layout. The accommodation comprises an entrance porch leading into a welcoming hallway with useful storage cupboards, together with a dual-aspect lounge featuring an attractive fireplace and wood-burning stove.

At the heart of the home is an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and garden room, enjoying windows to the side and rear and fitted with a modern range of wall and floor units. Features include an inset Belfast sink, gas hob, two separate ovens, integrated dishwasher, fridge and freezer, and a practical pantry cupboard. A separate bar area, also fitted with storage units and a stainless-steel sink, opens into the attractive vaulted-ceiling garden room, which overlooks the rear garden and benefits from French doors providing direct access outside.

The property offers four well-proportioned bedrooms, each with fitted wardrobes. The principal bedroom further benefits from an en suite shower room fitted with a low-level WC, wash hand basin and shower cubicle with mains-fed wall-mounted shower. The family bathroom is appointed with a low-level WC, wash hand basin with vanity storage, panelled bath with shower mixer tap, and a separate shower cubicle with mains-fed wall-mounted shower.

Externally, the gardens extend to the front, side and rear and have been immaculately maintained, being predominantly laid to lawn with a variety of established flowering shrubs, borders and planted areas. To the rear is a substantial patio, together with a hot tub and sunken trampoline. A sweeping driveway provides ample off-street parking and leads to the garage with roller door. Part of the garage has been thoughtfully sectioned to create a useful office or treatment room, complete with light, power, fitted wall and floor units, and a sink drainer unit.

A superb family home of real quality and individuality, this impressive property must be viewed to fully appreciate the generous plot, countryside outlook and excellent standard of accommodation on offer.

Church View is situated in a quiet cul-de-sac in the attractive original village of West Rainton and benefits from a semi rural aspect with easy access to nearby country walks. West Rainton lies on the northern outskirts of Durham City with easy travel via the A690 to the A19 and Sunderland and is within a few minutes drive to the A1M Carville interchange.
