3 Bedroom Terraced House

Upon entering the property, it is clear that the house has a certain Victorian elegance about it with high ceilings, cornices, ceiling roses and fireplaces. A spacious, well-lit hallway gives the all-important welcome and shows off an original balustrade staircase which curls round at a half landing to the first floor. Light floods into the hallway from the south west-facing landing window.

The heart of the home - the kitchen - has plenty of wall and base units for all your needs, plumbing for a dishwasher, space for an American style fridge and room for a kitchen table. There is plenty of room for expansion here, depending on needs, and the kitchen leads out onto a sizeable back garden. This property needs to be seen to understand the potential.

The dining room and lounge are a very good size and have fireplaces as a focal point. Both have been replastered and have a good finish. The dining room has a clever dual aspect to it, with French doors opening onto an area of decking in the back garden. This is just an ideal space for entertaining family and friends. Meanwhile, a separate utility-come-downstairs cloakroom, exists further along the ground floor next to the kitchen. It appears that there is plenty of space to manage the essential housekeeping tasks in life, and there is even a shed at the bottom of the garden.

Barnard Castle is a medieval town built around the castle that gave the town its name. It is also a market town, where traditionally cattle and sheep have been brought to buy and sell because Barnard Castle sits in the middle of Teesdale, with its achingly beautiful countryside and farmland. The town has an impressive high street and cobbled market place, choc-full of cafes, bookshops and antique centres. Many architectural delights and landmarks enrich the town, such as the famous Butter Market and purpose-built Victorian, "Bowes Museum".

There are many artistic and musical outlets to get involved with including The Castle Players, Teesdale Operatic Society, Choral Society, U3A and so on. 17 Marshall Street is 115 feet away from the Cricket Club grounds, and under a mile away from the Teesdale Leisure Centre, where there are multitude of fitness classes for a range of abilities and the town swimming pool. There are a lot of sporting clubs at Barnard Castle, including cricket, golf, athletics, tennis, bowls and rugby. Barnard Castle School famously produces England rugby players for the country. This school and Teesdale School are in the town centre so your children could walk safely to school from 17 Marshall Street. Both schools have a very good reputation and both produce Oxbridge students to boot.

In short, Barnard Castle is a fantastic place in which to raise a family. It has the best of both worlds satisfying many different criteria all at once. For example, being close to countryside and river walks makes this an excellent location for mindful living. Meanwhile it is easy to get to a mainline train station from where you can catch a direct train to London Kings Cross.
