" Nestled in the picturesque and historical heart of Hurworth Village, Sundial House stands as a testament to architectural beauty and enduring elegance.

The interior exudes a masterful blend of heritage charm and modern amenities, making it an ideal sanctuary for the discerning family. With its 5,126 square feet of living space, the house offers expansive yet intimate settings, including five generous bedrooms, each steeped in character with features such as original fireplaces and bespoke wardrobes, adding layers of personal history and style.

The entrance porch, with its traditional wooden floors and a welcoming fireplace, leads you into a grand entrance hall that sets the stage for the rest of the home.

The living room, with its oak herringbone parquet floor framed by a mahogany surround and sash bay windows, makes the perfect retreat. This is a room where stories are told, laughter is shared, and relaxation is mandatory.

The study and games room are reflections of the home‘s versatile living spaces. The study, with its oak parquet flooring and log burner, provides a distinguished setting for work or relaxation, while the games room, featuring a feature fireplace and French doors, offers ample space for leisure and family activities.

Further exploration reveals the depths of Sundial House in the lower ground floors, which house essential utilities and storage solutions, maintaining the home‘s blend of elegance and practicality.

The heart of the home, the kitchen, merges traditional charm with modern functionality, equipped with a granite worktop, state-of-the-art appliances, and gas Aga. Adjacent to the kitchen, the Prime Oak orangery offers a gorgeous retreat with cathedral lights, a Sonos sound system, and underfloor heating, perfect for year-round entertainment.

The sleeping quarters are exceptional spaces, with each of the five bedrooms offering its own unique charm. The master suite, a sanctuary of serenity, boasts dual aspect windows, a feature fireplace, and a luxurious en-suite with a standalone bath, twin washbasins, and ceramic heated flooring for an indulgent end to each day. The remaining bedrooms are equally well-appointed, each with built-in wardrobes and traditional fireplaces, ensuring that every family member enjoys their own private, comfortable space.

Outside, the property continues to impress. A Victorian walled garden provides a private and picturesque setting where mature planting surrounds an expansive lawn. With its assortment of trees, the decked and paved area and the outside kitchen, this serves as a canvas for private gatherings, relaxation or entertaining.

Sundial House is not just a residence; it‘s a lifestyle statement nestled in one of Darlington‘s most sought-after locations. It promises a life of comfort, heritage, and beauty, where every corner tells a story, and every moment at home is a moment to treasure. Whether it‘s the historical allure, the bespoke interiors, or the idyllic gardens, this magnificent home simply must be viewed in person to be truly appreciated.
