The Chestnuts, South Hetton

5 bedroom property for sale

Offers in the region of £450,000
This impressively spacious detached hybrid bungalow occupies a most attractive semi-rural position on the edge of the village of South Hetton, enjoying lovely far-reaching views over adjoining open countryside and a particularly private and secluded setting. With a large mature garden site extending to just under half an acre, the property offers a rare combination of space and potential, with scope for further development (subject to the usual consents). The accommodation is well planned and generously proportioned throughout, with an imposing open-plan lounge and dining area featuring a multifuel stove, creating a warm and welcoming focal point to the home and large picture windows maximising the countryside views. The stylish contemporary kitchen was refitted in 2025 and is presented to a high standard with quality integrated appliances and there is a useful separate utility. There are two bedrooms to the ground floor, together with a luxuriously appointed bathroom with a separate shower enclosure, while the first floor provides three further bedrooms, including a fifth bedroom with en suite facilities, offering excellent flexibility for family living, guests or home working. Externally, the grounds are a particularly impressive feature, with mature borders, private seating areas and ample space for those seeking a garden of real substance. There is also a large double-width garage and extensive parking, adding to the practicality of the property. Well placed for access to the regional road network, the location provides convenient links to major commercial centres across the North East, including Sunderland and Durham. Recently fitted quality carpets complete this superb home, which is available with no upward chain and offers a rare opportunity in a highly desirable setting.
