This distinguished detached family home, located in the prestigious Silksworth Hall Conservation Area, offers an exemplary standard of living a mere 4.5 miles from Sunderland City Centre. Unique in its design, this five-bedroom residence is notable for its additional ground floor annex. Converted from the garage, the annex comprises an open-plan living room/kitchen, a bedroom with an ensuite, and a separate entrance from the main porch. This versatile space is ideal for older children or guests, providing both privacy and accessibility.
Upon entering the main house, you are greeted by a spacious hallway, which serves as a hub to the various rooms. The living room, a showcase of understated elegance, features ample space, a charming fireplace, and glass doors leading to the conservatory, an ideal retreat for relaxation. The dining room, equally generous in size, boasts modern décor and double French doors that open to the garden, inviting in copious natural light.
The heart of the home is the kitchen, a testament to contemporary design, outfitted with off-white floor and wall units. Adjacent to the kitchen is a practical utility room, offering secondary access to the annex. Completing the ground floor is a conveniently located downstairs WC.
The first floor houses five bedrooms, each with its own character. The master bedroom, an expansive space situated above the original garage, includes a luxurious ensuite, a large walk-in wardrobe, and is bathed in light from dual aspect windows. The second bedroom, located at the rear, is spacious, tranquil, and also benefits from an ensuite bathroom. The additional three bedrooms are well-proportioned, two featuring fitted storage, and are complemented by a stunning family bathroom, complete with a walk-in shower and elegant sandstone-style tiling.
SELF CONTAINED ANNEX
The annex is accessed through a private entrance situated to the right of the main porch, ensuring both privacy and convenience. Additionally, a rear door from the annex leads directly into the utility room, providing practical access for laundry purposes. This self-contained space boasts a comfortable living area, illuminated by natural light through dual aspect windows that offer serene views of the quiet land at the front of the property.
The annex's kitchen is a highlight, facilitating complete independence and everyday convenience. Adjoining the living area is a spacious bedroom, equipped with fitted storage, and leading to an ensuite bathroom. This configuration makes the annex ideal for a variety of needs, whether it's accommodating frequent guests, offering an older child their own space, providing comfortable living for an elderly relative, or other scenarios that value independence within a family home.
Such an opportunity, combining flexibility, independence, and the charm of a prime location, is a rare find and makes this property a highly desirable choice for those seeking a home that caters to diverse family dynamics and lifestyles.
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.

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.
