Price £249,950
Offering considerable charm and character, 5 Burn Hall is an impressive stone built barn conversion with gas fired central heating.
Forming part of the original Burn Hall Estate it was thoughtfully and imaginatively converted in the late 1990's and now provides a quite unique setting. The development comprises the privately owned hall and 24 individual and exclusive properties set in over 30 acres of private listed parkland with woodland and river walks.
Access to the estate is through remote control gates combined with an in-house entry phone system. The entrance to the estate is also CCTV monitored via the TV system. Additionally the entrance, drive and courtyard areas have feature lighting, all of which ensure a high degree of privacy and seclusion. Offering spacious and well appointed accommodation in an interesting design and layout, it briefly comprises: entrance hall, spacious lounge/dining room, fitted kitchen with built in appliances, utility room and downstairs wc. Access to the first floor is via a spiral staircase to the open gallery. The master bedroom has an en suite shower room and there are two further double bedrooms and a family bathroom. There is the added advantage of a single garage situated in a block close by with additional parking space and visitor parking.
The beautifully restored hall is privately owned and was designed by Ignacious Bonomi and is Grade II * Listed and dates back to 1834. The parkland and outbuildings are Grade II listed and the estate is a conservation area listed by English Heritage as a place of historic interest. Prior to the recent restoration works and redevelopment, the estate was used as a seminary by the Mill Hill Missionaries.
Access to Burn Hall Estate is immediately off the A(167) Highway through the remote control gates and along a most impressive private tree lined drive. It is conveniently situated within only a few minutes drive of Durham City Centre where there are comprehensive shopping and recreational facilities and amenities available and access to other regional centres is via the A(167) Highway.
All in all, a quite unique property in a superb setting that should be viewed to be appreciated.
