The Area

Wearhead
Wearhead is, as the name suggests located to the top of Weardale, surrounded by beautiful open countryside and with many renowned beauty spots close to hand. It supports basic amenities including small primary school and village shop, whilst a more traditional range can be found in nearby St Johns Chapel which has a number of Public Houses, local Co-Operative, doctor?s surgery, Post Office and a village hall. The property is ideally placed for accessing the delights of Weardale, Teesdale, The Lake District, Northumberland and the Scottish Borders as well as both the east and west coasts. For the commuter the A68, A69 and M6 provide links with the major commercial centres of the North of England. International airports at Newcastle and Durham Tees Valley as well as east and west coast mainline railway services offer further communications with the rest of the Country.

The Property

2 Front Street
2 Front Street is a substantial double fronted stone built property occupying a central position within this pretty Weardale village. The generously proportioned accommodation has oil fired central heating and double glazing throughout. Whilst its commercial heritage provides excellent opportunities, it could equally appeal for alternative uses, especially as a holiday cottage or second home, subject to consents.

Double opening doors with borrowed light over head lead through a part glazed inner doorway to a wonderful open plan room which could easily be utilised either commercially or as living accommodation, subject to consents. There is exposed floor boarding throughout along with a bordered ceiling plus a charming hob grate, double fronted windows and further windows to the side looking over the river and beyond. The kitchen is fitted out with a range of base and wall mounted storage units along with a built in oven and hob, space for appliances and a feature period style Stanley free standing range. There is fitted book/display shelving and stairs leading off to the first floor. Beyond is a utility room with slate tiled flooring having a shuttered window along with a cloakroom/WC and original side entrance doorway. To the first floor is a spacious landing with a decorative fireplace with chimney sealed off and painted lintel and jambs. There are four good sized bedrooms some which enjoy views over the river along with a bathroom/WC with 3 piece suite and a shower cubicle. The main bedroom has a charming arched stained glass door along with a Victorian fireplace and views over the village to the countryside beyond.
