Green Cottage, Barnard Castle 3 bed terraced house for sale

The owners of this Grade ll-listed property have been masterful in their choices. Clever colour schemes and the use of natural light enhance the beauty and original features within. As you travel from the flagged floors of the living room where you enjoy the roaring fire and cosy armchairs, a beautiful light hallway, where the grandfather clock stands, invites you to peer through French doors into the garden. As you move from one room to another there is no draught; The warmth continues into the superb, spacious kitchen where the personality of the Rayburn stove takes over. A traditional big table, where baking or informal dining takes place, invites you to relax, read the paper and drink a cup of tea. This pretty kitchen, which leads through stable doors into the garden, is both a sociable and practical space with beautifully-painted beams and cabinetry. There is a strong sense of cosy cottage meets English Heritage show home.

The spacious rear garden is attractive and well-kept, lending itself well to relaxation and enjoying the sublime rural views. A sauna, located close to the house, in a traditional sauna shed, reflects total mastering of a healthy lifestyle and high quality down time.

All three bedrooms are very spacious and characterful, beautifully decorated to a high standard. Much thought has gone into the design of these bedrooms, providing a luxury feel without losing the character of this historic property.

The property is in the tranquil village of Boldron, just three scenic miles from historic Barnard Castle, itself a beautiful town with a cobbled market square, interesting narrow streets and artisan shops. It will delight you with its impressive architecture, which is punctuated by the River Tees, The Bowes Museum and The Castle itself. It is no hardship to pick up freshly baked sourdough and the newspapers from this famous town, as part of your weekend routine.

There are easy links to motorways, trains and airports. Darlington, a mainline station to London Kings Cross, is situated an easy half an hour away. The Lake District is at your disposal, with Penrith a very straight forward 30 minutes away and Keswick 45 minutes. So this gorgeous cosy cottage, with its lovely big garden and beautiful rural views, makes it possible to enjoy a sophisticated country life style, whilst still maintaining a job or career.
