Chaucer Drive, Crook, DL15 4 bedroom detached house For Sale in Crook

Introduction

Description

Crook is situated a couple of miles north of the River Wear, approximately 9 miles south-west of the Historic City Of Durham and 5 miles north-west of Bishop Auckland, which is home to the spectacular open air night show Kynren-An Epic Tale of England.

The A690 road from Durham turns into the A689 leading up through Wolsingham and Stanhope into the upper reaches of Weardale (an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty). Located on the edge of Weardale, Crook is consequently sometimes referred to as the "Gateway to Weardale". The centre of Crook features a variety of shops, pubs, cafes and restaurants. There are two prominent churches, the centrally located St Catherine's CE and Our Lady Immaculate and St Cuthbert's RC on Church Hill. On top of the hills to the east sits Crook Golf Club.

The property has been subject to a great deal of expenditure by the current vendors, incorporating a contemporary range of fixtures and fittings.

Warmed via Gas Central Heating and having uPVC Double Glazing throughout, the layout briefly comprises, Entrance Hallway, Cloakroom W/c, a well-proportioned Lounge and a stunning Kitchen Diner providing ample space for family dining and entertaining.

To the first floor there is a Family Bathroom and Four Bedrooms, the Master of which has an En-Suite Bathroom.

Occupying a generous plot the property has enclosed gardens front and rear. A block paved driveway, provides off road parking facilities. The former Garage has been converted into two sections, the front for storage and the rear into office space.

In our opinion this ready to move into property, would make an exceptional family home for the discerning purchaser and therefore only an internal inspection will truly suffice to fully appreciate the accommodation on offer.
