A stunning two-bedroom semi-detached home in the sought-after village of Shotley Bridge, boasting far-reaching countryside views towards the Derwent Valley, a versatile converted layout, stylish interiors and excellent outdoor space, ideal for first-time buyers or downsizers seeking flexible living and excellent commuter links.

Accessed via a composite cottage-style external door, the property opens into a welcoming inner hallway finished in a bright white colour scheme with laminate flooring, creating an immediate sense of light and space. The bathroom is positioned to the left and is fitted with a bath with electric shower over, pedestal wash hand basin and WC, complemented by a smart white metro tile surround, black floor tiling and a contemporary monochrome finish, along with a black heated towel radiator for a sleek finishing touch.

From the hallway, there is access to two well-proportioned bedrooms, both enjoying pleasant outlooks over the rear garden, with the principal bedroom further benefitting from fitted wardrobes.

The heart of the home is the open plan lounge, dining and kitchen area, which creates a superb flow for modern living.

The lounge features a fireplace mantle focal point and attractive gloss laminate flooring, while sliding doors open onto a balcony seating area, perfectly positioned to take in the stunning countryside views across the Derwent Valley.

The kitchen is beautifully appointed with contrasting base and wall cabinetry, a monochromatic design scheme and an eye-catching emerald green tiled splashback, complemented by contrasting wood effect work surfaces, a Belfast sink and integrated appliances including fridge freezer, oven, microwave, electric hob and extractor. The outlook from the sink offers a particularly pleasant view, enhancing everyday living.

The property has been thoughtfully adapted and benefits from a staircase leading from the hallway to the ground floor level, providing a highly versatile additional space.

This lower level includes a utility and cloaks area, along with a flexible room currently used as a playroom but equally suitable as a second reception room, home office or hobby space depending on individual needs. French doors open directly to the front of the property, further enhancing its versatility and connection to the outdoors.

Externally, the home offers a generous driveway with the benefit of an electric car charging point, alongside multiple seating areas to the front and side. The landscaped garden features a low-maintenance resin bound finish, with further resin bound pathways continuing around the property. Tiered sections with sleeper borders provide scope for planting and soft landscaping, creating an attractive yet easy to maintain outdoor environment, complemented by a useful shed for storage.
