DESCRIPTION
We are extremely delighted to be able to offer for sale this double fronted, five bedroomed Georgian property situated on Norton High Street. The property is believed to have been built between 1703-1705 as part of the Manor of Stockton which in turn was part of the ecclesiastical lands of the Prince Bishops of Durham. As one of the earliest buildings in this part of Norton High Street it would have been free standing and probably a small holding/farm. The property offers exceptional potential and would be ideal for many buyers. The property features gas-fired central heating in most of the first floor rooms.

The original features in this room include large wide floorboards, working period wooden shutters to the windows, Georgian windows with mostly early glass, Classical mantelpiece and fireplace surround, deep moulded coving and embossed wallpaper to the fireplace wall which we believe to be 18th or 19th century.

Externally
To the impressive Georgian frontage there is wrought iron fencing and flower beds. Double gates to the side of the property provide off street parking and access to the coach house which pre 1880 was accessed from the yard next door. There is also an outside toilet and coal house connected to the coach house. We feel this offers great potential to be converted, with appropriate regulations and planning. There is gated access to the large rear garden with features such as sandstone water tank used as a flower bed, lawn with rose beds, raised brick edged herbaceous border, peony bed with kitchen garden and fruit trees beyond. There are paths with sandstone paving. We are informed by the current owners that the stable block next door, which extended beyond the coach house and burnt down in the 1950's, is now replaced by a series of garages. Original vertical ventilation slots from the stables can been seen in the garden wall.
Additional
The current owners have kindly given us a brief history of the property. The property itself is believed to have been built in 1703 or 1705 as part of the Manor of Stockton which in turn was part of the ecclesiastical lands of the Prince Bishops of Durham.
This dating is partially confirmed by the exposed sash boxes (flush with wall rather than recessed) on the front windows, which are predominantly a feature of Queen Anne Houses to reduce the spread of fire, they were banned in London from 1709.
As the earliest building in this part of Norton High Street it would have been freestanding and probably a small farm.
Tenanted but owned by the Wrightson family who owned lands and farms in the area and who were based at Neasham Hall near Darlington, they also appeared to have owned Norton Hall.
On the 13th October 1899 Sir Thomas Wrightson sells the house and other properties to William Kirk.
16th December 1919 William Kirk of Norton Hall sells to Nigel Sydney Augustine Harrison for £1000.
3rd August 1935 N S A Harrison buys out the hunting and mining rights from the Manor of Stockton/Ecclesiastical Commission for £9 15 shillings to give him an unencumbered freehold.
9th April 1948 Cyril Frederick Nigel Harrison the son of the late N S A Harrison sells 94 High Street also referred to as 'The Cottage' to Jerzy and Mary Skrebowski for £3450.
In mid 1949 as a result of the division of many of the neighbouring houses, number 94 was renumbered as 104.
2010 the three sons of the late Dr and Mrs Skrebowski put 104 High Street onto the market.
