4 bedroom detached house for sale
It's easy to run out of superlatives when describing The Rookery; if period property is your passion then surely this gorgeous house is for you.
Steeped in history and clearly loved and cherished by the current owners, this beautiful home achieves a rare balance. All the grandeur and space of a period property but with the quality you'd expect in a modern home.
Occupying an extensive plot on one of Darlingtons most sought after locations, the property occupies a fabulous, slightly elevated spot. The outdoor space to the front is considerable, however, its the back garden that is the show stopper. Whether your needs centre around children, pets, gardening or just enjoying some 'you' time, this gorgeous lawned garden ticks all the boxes.
Inside the property continues to delight. As you'd expect, a large lounge, separate dining room, study and cloakroom. However, its the kitchen and sun room which is the show stopper. Lending itself to an enormous range of uses, the light and airy kitchen has been extended and now offers the most gorgeous sunroom. It takes no imagination to see how the kitchen and the garden would become one; whether it's a summer barbeque or a fireworks party with friends and family watching a display on the patio.
Upstairs and we find 4 great sized bedrooms and a family bathroom. A large master bedroom with en-suite, a second bedroom with a fabulous and rather unique balcony and a third with pleasant views to the rear. The rear double height extension in 2003 offers a particularly lovely fourth bedroom.
So whatever your wish list, you'll be hard pressed to find a more lovely house. We'd urge you to make that call to us today for our next available viewing opportunity as properties such as this rarely stay on the market for long.
The Owners Love: The extended kitchen and utility room, the proximity to schools and town centre.
We Love: The sheer size and grandeur - we love the way that it retains its original charm and feel but has clearly been loved and this reflects in the decor and quality of finish.
