A rare opportunity has arisen to purchase a substantial Five Bedroom Detached Family Home, occupying an extremely generous corner plot, situated at the head of a small exclusive residential development and benefitting from not being directly overlooked.
The market town of Shildon, which is home to the National Railway Museum, is approximately 4 miles southeast of Bishop Auckland and 9 miles north of Darlington. The property has good transport links with the A6072 trunk road giving access to the A1(M) for travel North and South. There are also rail links to both Darlington and Bishop Auckland.
The property is a credit to the current vendors who have extended to the rear to create a superb Games/Family Room and a further room that could be utilised for a number of purposes.
Immaculately appointed and boasting a range of contemporary fixtures and fitting throughout, the internal layout briefly comprises; Entrance Lobby, Reception Hallway, Cloakroom/Wc, Dining Room, Fitted Kitchen, Utility Area with access to Extension Room, Games/Family Room and a well proportioned Lounge.
To the first floor a stunning Master Bedroom with Dressing Area and En-Suite Bathroom, a further Three Bedrooms, one with En-Suite Shower Room and a Family Bathroom.
A staircase rises to Bedroom Five, which covers the second floor of the property, and which also has its own Private Shower Room/Wc.
Externally the property has a private and enclosed garden to the rear with an impressive Summerhouse/Bar and W/c. Gated side access opening to a block paved courtyard.
To the front of the house there is an open plan garden and an extensive block paved forecourt, leading to an attached Garage, providing off road parking facilities for a number of vehicles, including a camper van or motor home.

What Other Related Technologies Does PropertyHeads Use, and Why?
Tracking Pixels: Our advertising partners may use tracking pixels or similar technology to measure the success of the sponsored posts or other advertising products they use. A “tracking pixel” (also sometimes called web beacon, or clear GIF) is a tiny piece of code, invisible to the user, placed on a webpage or in an email and used in combination with a cookie, to link a given activity or impression back to the user; the advertiser includes it in its content so it can measure whether our members interact with that content (for example, by clicking to view an offer). We may set our own tracking pixel on an advertiser’s website so we can measure whether our members found the advertiser’s content effective or interesting, by tracking whether the sponsored post prompted members to take advantage of the advertised offer. This information helps us assess whether sponsored posts and other advertising offers are relevant and interesting to our members and successful for the advertiser.
