This a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious period house situated in sought-after Dunsany Terrace where properties are rarely available. The property has extensive mature gardens to both front and rear together with a large garage and a yard immediately to the rear. The house requires modernisation and improvement, but it offers spacious family accommodation on both the ground and first floors combined with outside space which is also ideal for family buyers, particularly the large garden area over the lane to the rear. On the ground floor, there is an entrance lobby and hall which leads to two large reception rooms. The kitchen/breakfast room extends to over 21 feet. On the first floor, there are three bedrooms, accessed via the 20ft landing. There is also a wc and a good-sized bathroom. The specification includes gas-fired central heating via radiators with a replacement Worcester combination boiler, installed in 2022. An exceptional home in terms of its size, character, and excellent potential. It is available with a Freehold title and no onward chain. Viewing is highly recommended.
Properties within this highly regarded row of substantial houses are very rarely available. The row has open views over the countryside to the rear. The village location is situated within a few minutes drive of Chester le Street town centre where there are an extensive range of shops, schools and leisure facilities. The town itself is also popular because of its excellent road links together with the train station situated on the main East Coast line linking London and Edinburgh.

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.
