The Old Sawmill, Shincliffe, DH1 2TQ
NEW PRICE £665,000
Description
The Old Sawmill is situated within a private location in Shincliffe and offers a bespoke, spacious family home set on a generous plot with just under an acre of land. This property affords bright and airy flexible living space featuring an orangery with the original property extended and designed carefully, all within a semi-rural sought after area in the outskirts of Durham City.
This property also includes a separate, self contained and recently renovated one bedroom annexe. This gives the property plenty of additional flexibility and offers another space to enjoy in the exclusive grounds.
This estate includes five bedrooms in total with the main luxury home offering four bedrooms that can be adaptable for working or the perfect growing family, with accommodating reception rooms designed sympathetically to the remote location following the extension of the property in 2018.
The home is also powered by an air source heat pump; a future proof, cost-effective sustainable energy source using the environment to generate 75% of the heating and hot water needs.
The area is located in the catchment of well regarded schools and is within 2 miles of the main commuting corridors. With close proximity to all amenities, history, culture, bars and restaurants that Durham City offers, arranging an appointment to view Holly Cottage is highly encouraged.
Agents Note: In the near future, the EPC rating is likely to be positively affected by pending government guidelines on air source heat pumps.
Please Note: Annex is unavailable for holiday lets.
