Property description
A double-fronted, end-terraced period house with two spacious reception rooms, situated at the lower end of George Street in Blackhill.
This interesting house was originally built in 1892, as a blacksmith's, and it retains much of its late 19th century character while having been modernised in recent years. There has been a new roof fitted in 2016, while the combi. boiler was installed in 2013, and the house also has uPVC double glazing. The ground floor accommodation is on a split level, with the living room accessed to the left off the entrance hall, and a small flight of stairs to the lobby, which opens into the fitted kitchen, with W.C. off, and the dining room to the right. The main flight of central stairs splits at the top to lead to the master bedroom, on the right, a contemporary bathroom that includes a shower cubicle, and the third bedroom, while to the left there is a storage room and the second bedroom. Externally, there is a rear yard that has artificial grass and a covered path.
George Street is situated close to shops and facilities on Durham Road in Blackhill and is also near to Shotley Bridge village, which has some shops and restaurants. It is approximately a mile-and-a-quarter from Consett town centre and the retail park at Puddlers Corner, and approximately 14 miles from Durham and Newcastle, which are accessed via the A691 and A692.
