House


Description

Occupying a desirable position within the picturesque village of Dufton, nestled beneath the Pennines and enjoying delightful fell views to the front, this beautifully maintained three-bedroom detached home has been lovingly cared for by its current owners since 2010. Built in 2002 by Russell Armer and having had just one previous owner, the property is thoughtfully designed, exceptionally well presented throughout and offers an excellent opportunity for those seeking a welcoming home in one of the Eden Valley's most sought-after villages.

The accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance hall, providing access to the principal ground floor rooms together with a useful cloakroom/WC and staircase rising to the first floor.

Positioned to the rear of the property, the living room is a bright and comfortable space, centred around an attractive contemporary fireplace incorporating an electric fire. Double doors lead seamlessly through to the adjoining dining room, allowing the two reception rooms to be enjoyed independently or opened up for larger family gatherings and entertaining. Prospective purchasers may also wish to explore the potential of creating a more open-plan arrangement with either the living room or adjoining kitchen, subject to any necessary consents.

The dining room enjoys patio doors opening directly onto the rear garden, creating an ideal setting for indoor and outdoor entertaining, with the flagged patio providing the perfect spot for al fresco dining during the warmer months.

To the front of the property, the well-appointed kitchen takes full advantage of the delightful outlook towards the surrounding fells. Fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and base units complemented by matching work surfaces, the kitchen incorporates integrated double ovens and an extractor hood, together with space for a fridge freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. A sink is perfectly positioned beneath the window overlooking the front garden, while a particularly useful pantry houses the oil-fired boiler, installed approximately three years ago, together with excellent shelving for additional storage.

The first floor is approached via a half landing illuminated by a front-facing window, allowing natural light to flood the staircase. The landing itself benefits from an excellent shelved linen cupboard and provides access to the family bathroom and all three bedrooms.

The family bathroom is fitted with a modern white suite comprising a WC, wash hand basin and bath with mains-fed shower and fitted shower screen.

Two generously proportioned double bedrooms are positioned to the rear of the property, while the third bedroom enjoys a front aspect, making the most of the wonderful fell views and providing an ideal guest bedroom, nursery or home office.

Externally, the property continues to impress. A generous driveway provides off-road parking for two vehicles and leads to the garage (detached from the property, although adjoining the neighboring garage), which offers excellent versatility beyond vehicle storage. In addition to accommodating a car, the garage benefits from fitted units, space for a tumble dryer and ladder access to useful mezzanine storage.

The gardens have been lovingly established and are a real delight, offering an attractive combination of lawned areas, colourful well-stocked flower beds and low-maintenance patio seating areas that can be enjoyed throughout the seasons. A greenhouse is currently situated within the garden; however, prospective purchasers should note that this is not included within the sale.

Beautifully presented throughout and offering spacious, flexible accommodation, this delightful home combines modern practicality with a peaceful village setting. Enjoying attractive fell views, established gardens and a highly desirable location, it presents an excellent opportunity for couples, families and those seeking a welcoming home within the heart of the Eden Valley.
