Description

* NO FORWARD CHAIN * RECENTLY REFURBISHED * OFF ROAD PARKING *

Robinsons are delighted to present this beautifully refurbished two-bedroom home to the sales market, complete with a garden and off-road parking. The property has undergone an extensive renovation and now offers modern living with quality fixtures and fittings throughout.

The home is warmed by a gas combination boiler and features UPVC double glazing. It further benefits from both a ground-floor shower room and a first-floor bathroom.

The accommodation comprises an entrance porch, a spacious lounge with staircase to the first floor, and a contemporary kitchen/dining room fitted with a modern range of wall, base, and drawer units, along with an integrated oven and hob, and space for a dishwasher and fridge/freezer. A rear hallway doubles as a utility area with plumbing for a washing machine, and leads to a stylish ground-floor shower room with a three-piece suite.

To the first floor are two well-proportioned bedrooms, the principal bedroom featuring a generous built-in wardrobe, and a family bathroom with a three-piece suite.

Externally, the property enjoys an enclosed front garden with far-reaching countryside views. To the rear, across the back lane, there is hardstanding for off-road parking and a coal shed.

Sunniside is a picturesque village surrounded by beautiful countryside, yet conveniently located just a short drive from Crook and Tow Law, both offering a selection of shops, healthcare facilities, and schools.

Contact Robinsons today for further information or to arrange an internal viewing of this delightful home.
