The Property  
4 The Castle offers a unique chance to acquire a distinct property within the historic walls of Stanhope Castle, situated in the charming market town of Stanhope, County Durham. Set amidst the picturesque North Pennines, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the property has been luxuriously renovated whilst retaining much of its historical character.  

The castle itself has a rich history, with its origins stretching back to the 1600s. The structure that stands today is the result of a grand redesign in 1798, and it has since evolved from a stately home into private apartments in the 1980s. Within these walls, 4 The Castle offers a rare opportunity to enjoy modern living within a grand and historic setting.  

The property is a distinctive single-level property combining period character with modern comforts. The property features large original windows that showcase the Gothic Grade II Listed architecture of the castle and fill the home with natural light. 

The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area provides a welcoming space for everyday living and entertaining. The well-appointed kitchen includes a Bosch oven and gas hob, along with a Kenwood fridge/freezer. The adjacent dining area is perfect for both casual and formal dining. 

The property offers three generous bedrooms, including a luxurious principal bedroom with a Burlington en-suite bathroom. A second family bathroom, also fitted with a Burlington suite, includes a roll-top bath and period-style tiling. 

Externally 
The property features a delightful outdoor seating area with a hot tub and views of the surrounding countryside. Both properties benefit from ample parking and share access to the impressive courtyard, effectively the whole back end of Stanhope Castle. The grounds provide a sense of history and grandeur while offering peaceful outdoor spaces for guests to enjoy. The proximity to Weardale’s rolling hills and stunning countryside ensures that the properties offer an ideal location for exploring the region.
