This property has four bedrooms, with further accommodation located above the detached garage

The Estate House in Minsteracres, County Durham blends modern comforts with interesting period features to create a stunning family home.

The entrance hall provides access to a versatile study, which can also be used as a playroom or hobby room. The study houses a wood-burning stove set in a gorgeous decorative stone fireplace – the cosy snug also has a wood-burning stove, and leads on to the dining kitchen. Exposed wooden ceiling beams feature here, as well as a large island with wine rack, cooler and integrated appliances. Bi-fold doors lead to the orangery, which makes a perfect dining space. The airy sitting room is at the end of the hall, a bright space for entertaining and relaxing. There’s also a WC and utility room on this floor.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom has an ensuite, which features a gorgeous free-standing roll-top bath in the centre of the room. Three more spacious bedrooms are served by a contemporary family bathroom. Above the detached garage outside, there is additional accommodation which has the potential to be configured as a self-contained annexe, ideal for guests.

There are expansive gardens to the south and west of the property, with mature trees and formal borders. A walled courtyard garden with various terraced patio areas is a dream for those who enjoy al fresco dining and entertaining. As well as the detached double garage, the generous driveway offers further parking space.

Rurally located close to the border of Northumberland and County Durham, the property benefits from the seclusion of the countryside whilst still retaining easy access to larger towns and cities. The pretty village of Corbridge is nearby, offering excellent day-to-day amenities. The towns of Hexham, Prudhoe and Consett are all also near close by and the cities of Newcastle and Durham are both within easy driving distance. Minsteracres itself is a place of great historic interest, forming the grounds of the original Minsteracres monastery.
