About this property
Relax in style at this smart holiday home with views of the countryside at Medomsley Edge – just 2.5 miles outside Consett with its wide range of amenities. Pack up a picnic and set off to the National Trust’s Gibside Park and Garden (5 miles) to discover its 18th-century architectural gems and magnificent gardens, or head to Derwent Waterside Park (5.5 miles) to hike or cycle around the reservoir or let the kids run off some steam in the play park. Keep your eyes peeled for red kites and osprey. Enjoy walking or cycling trails at The Land of Oak and Iron in the Derwent Valley (7 miles), and visiting the heritage centre for coffee and lunch. Spend a full day at the amazing open-air Beamish Museum (9 miles). Further afield, make a beeline for the city of Durham (14 miles) to visit its iconic cathedral - a UNESCO World Heritage Site or Newcastle (13 miles) for culture and shopping.
This property is ideal for small families or friends seeking a spacious, stylish cottage to call home while they discover County Durham and the wider local area together. Three wide steps lead you up to the front door of this beautiful home. Step inside and you’ll find a chic open-plan lounge/diner showcasing mid-century-modern styling. A welcoming wood burner sits in pride of place. The kitchen is a light and bright space, with two windows overlooking the patio. Sip your morning coffee at the breakfast bar or cook up your favourite dishes in this sociable space. A contemporary shower room completes the ground-floor layout. Upstairs, you’ll discover two gorgeous bedrooms – a double and a twin – that both boast fabulous views across the Derwent Valley. The double has a sleek, en-suite shower room.
Head outside to host an al fresco dinner at the picnic table in the enclosed patio-style garden. Or take a seat on the garden bench and spend a contented morning sipping coffee and planning the day ahead. Unallocated on-street parking is located in front of the property.
