Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • Former pub with spacious flat above
  • Granted change of use for conversion to 4 5 bed house
  • Semi rural village location
  • No onward chain
  • Planning permission approved
  • EPC: C (70) Commercial rating

Formerly 'The Chelmsford' pub with a spacious flat above it, this substantial property has been granted change of use by Durham County Council for conversion to a residential house, and is available with no onward chain.

The current layout comprises, to the ground floor: a bar and lounge area along with a catering kitchen, a games area and toilets. The first floor currently provides a three-bedroomed flat with a landing leading to a lounge, kitchen, bathroom and the three bedrooms. There are mains services connected - electricity, gas and water/drainage - and the property has gas central heating. There is a parking area to the front and additional parking space to the rear where there is decking with a pagoda. The separate garden plot, situated above and to the rear, has another right of access from Front Street.

There is a right of access for a neighbouring land owner along the driveway, to the side; the rear neighbour has plans to build a stone-built detached property on the land to the rear.

The planning documents can be viewed here:

The plans for the proposed development/conversion are shown within the 'Floorplan' section (and can also be found on the Durham County Council planning portal, using the above link).

Situated within the conservation area in Ebchester village, 'The Chelmsford' is situated along the A694 - next to the staggered crossroads with the B6309 - and has a popular local shop, a church and a school. There is easy access to Consett (3.3 miles) and Newcastle (13 miles) via the A694, and further to Durham (15 miles) on the A691, making this an excellent location from which to commute. It is also close to Northumberland and there are several countryside walks and cycle routes in the area and a local pub - The Derwent Walk Inn - half a mile up the bank.

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted

    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
