Church Lane, Sadberge, Darlington

The original property dates back to 1845 and was converted into a residential home around 1990. The reconfiguration has been well planned and allows for spacious and versatile family accommodation. Pleasantly situated within the heart of Sadberge village and as the name of the property suggests the house is built around a delightful courtyard which all of the ground floor reception rooms enjoy views of.

Upon internal inspection you will find the immaculately presented accommodation is well proportioned throughout boasting a generous reception room and kitchen & dining area. The current vendors have enhanced the ground floor further with the addition of a superb garden room which can be enjoyed throughout the seasons having a cosy log burning stove at it's heart.

Bedroom three is a double bedroom and bedroom four is a good sized single room and is currently used as an office. Both are to the ground floor and a serviced by a modern shower room/WC. To the first floor there are two further double bedrooms and a family bathroom/WC.

Externally the property wraps around and encloses a delightful courtyard which has been landscaped with porcelain tiling and having a large ornamental pond with a back drop of established plants and shrubs to the borders. A water feature provides constant ambience and the area is flooded with sunlight and is very private. There is accent lighting for later in the evening creating a cosy glow over the area. A detached brick built garage which measures (18' x 9'11) has been converted and is a useful utility and storage space with UPVC entrance door and window. Double wrought iron gates, fold back for accessibility and allows for secure parking for two vehicles within the covered carport. Access to the courtyard is via a single wrought iron gate.

The property is immaculately presented and offers the very best of both worlds retaining character with high end modern finishes. The versatility of bedrooms to both floors futureproofs the home making it attractive to a number of buyers. Viewing is highly encouraged. The property is available with NO ONWARD CHAIN.
