Description

This impressive 3-bedroom Georgian property presents a great opportunity to own a home in the picturesque village of Westgate, situated in the rolling hills of the Northern Pennines National Landscape. Formally one of the oldest subscription libraries in the UK, this delightful residence comes to the market CHAIN FREE, and offers a perfect blend of modern conveniences and traditional character. The property welcomes you with two spacious reception rooms, perfect for relaxing or entertaining guests. The interior features multi-fuel burners, adding warmth and cosiness, while the large Georgian Bar uPVC windows throughout ensure natural light filters into the rooms, creating a bright and airy atmosphere. Traditional features such as exposed ceiling beams, deep sills, traditional fireplaces, and wood panelling, all add to the allure of the property. Neutrally decorated, the property presents an excellent opportunity for those looking for a fresh canvas to add their personal touches and create the perfect home.

In brief, the ground floor accommodation comprises a hallway, two reception rooms, kitchen, newly carpeted staircase rising to the first floor, and stone staircase leading to the cellar on the lower ground floor, presenting additional storage options. To the first floor are the property's three bedrooms (two spacious doubles), and large family bathroom.

The current owners have thoughtfully renovated the property, with a new oil boiler and plumbing, full rewire, new walls and thick insulation, new plaster, new guttering and down pipes, new carpets, newly fitted Wren kitchen, to name but a few of the recent updates.

Positioned to the rear of the property, and accessed externally via the kitchen, the outside yard is enclosed by stone walls, offering a sense of privacy and security. A paved patio area provides an ideal spot for outdoor dining or simply relaxing in the fresh air. 


Westgate, situated within the North Pennines National Landscape, provides residents with the opportunity to escape the hustle and bustle of busy city life and enjoy the peaceful and beautiful natural surroundings that the country village presents. The stunning area is also very popular as a holiday destination, and would be very successful as an Airbnb rental, with famous walking trails, cycling trails, fishing and golfing spots meandering through the beautiful Durham Dales and Pennines. The Weardale Ski Club offers skiing, snowboarding and snow kiting on your doorstep. Enjoy local attractions such as the Killhope Leadmining Museum, High Force Waterfall, Weardale Folk Museum, Lime Tree Gallery, Durham Dales Centre, Hamsterley Forest, Hall Hill Farm, Bowes Museum and Local Agricultural Shows (in August and September.) Furthermore, you are right in between the Lake District National Park and Northumberland National Park.
