Situated in the esteemed Silksworth Hall Conservation Area, this exceptional detached family home stands as a testament to refined living just 4.5 miles South West of Sunderland City Centre. Occupying a generous 0.41-acre plot, the property is enveloped by mature, private gardens. A notable highlight is the expansive 27-foot by 18-foot family room, which seamlessly extends the living space while providing breath-taking garden vistas.

Inside, the home exudes modern elegance with its contemporary décor and design. The welcoming entrance hall serves as a gateway to the primary living spaces, including a spacious lounge adorned with a feature fireplace and French doors leading to the conservatory. The heart of the home is the sizable kitchen/dining room, boasting sleek grey-finished units and a suite of integrated appliances. Adjacent to the kitchen, the family room stands out as a perfect space for relaxation and entertaining, with stunning garden views and access.

On to the first floor are the four bedrooms, with the master evoking the ambiance of a luxury hotel suite. Bathed in natural light from windows on three sides, it offers ample storage and an ensuite bathroom. The other bedrooms are generously proportioned, and the floor provides access to a fully boarded loft, ideal for additional storage.  A tastefully tiled family bathroom rounds off the living spaces.

Another highlight of this impressive house is the spacious double garage, which can be accessed from inside the home. It offers ample parking or storage space, with potential for further expansion if desired. Additionally, the expansive driveway at the front ensures off-street parking.

The beautiful south facing garden is surprisingly secluded for its central Sunderland location and is really a bit special. It offers a sun filled place to switch off and relax in the natural beauty, whilst also offering the ideal place to entertain friends and family. It's thoughtfully landscaped, featuring a lawn, mature trees, and plants, complemented by stone paving and patio spaces.

It's rare to find homes with this combination of size, location, and finish on the market. For more details and to schedule a viewing, please reach out to Martin & Co.

 

 

ABOUT THE SILKSWORTH HALL CONSERVATION AREA

The Silksworth Hall Conservation Area is a unique blend of history and architecture. Originating as a medieval settlement, it now features a mix of homes from the 18th to 20th centuries. The area encompasses the early village of Silksworth, the historic gardens of Doxford House, and the grounds of Silksworth Hall. Although some of the hall's grounds were developed in the 1970s, the core character remains intact.

A notable feature is the narrow Warden Law Lane, bordered by tall stone walls and lush greenery, giving the area a peaceful, enclosed feel. Most buildings, like the grand Silksworth Hall and Doxford House, showcase architectural styles from rustic stone to Italian Renaissance.

Today, the area is primarily residential, with the majority of buildings well-maintained, reflecting the area's historical layout and significance.

Surface Water Flood Risk
Unlike flooding from rivers, surface water flooding can happen many miles from a river, often in places that people wouldn’t expect because it’s a long way from a river or stream – it happens simply because there is nowhere else for the rainwater to go. Risk ratings are measured as:
High Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 30 (3.3%) in any one year.
Medium Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 100 (1.0%) in any one year.
Low Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 1000 (0.1%) in any one year.
Very Low Risk - an area in which the risk is below 1 in 1000 (0.1%) in any one year

Council Tax pays for multiple services in the property's local authority with only part of it going to the council itself. Residences within a Parish or Town Council area have an additional charge to fund the body. Each parish/town council has a different budget and imposes different fees. Not all councils have parishes/town councils and this varies across the country.

In instances where parish/town councils do affect the council tax value and we do not have the exact figure, we present council tax data with the below highlights. Take care to confirm which is being presented by the dashboard as this will need to be made clear to your clients:

avg - When we indicate the Council Tax price is 'avg', it means we have not been able to obtain an exact figure, so this number represents the mean value of Council Tax across the council for that property band. The exact figure will be slightly higher or lower because each parish/town council is priced differently.

min - When we indicate the Council Tax is a 'min', it represents the known amount that the council sets for itself, but excludes the parish/town council cost which we have not been able to obtain. The additional cost will need to be considered as it will be greater than the indicated price.
