This is a rare gem of a property conveniently located in the unspoilt conservation area of Alston and literally on the doorstep of all its facilities and amenities. This most attractive house has been created by adding two former houses together, to create a much larger property with well-proportioned rooms, versatility, ample private off-street parking and superb and generous sized gardens in the heart of this historic market town. The property is very attractive and has been extended and modernised to create a contemporary interior with traditional exterior, including newly installed uPVC double glazing, full gas fired central heating, numerous noteworthy features throughout with much charm and character. Four bedroom accommodation, all within a convenient location. Outside there is private driveway parking for up to five cars, a garden store house and mature well-laid out and maintained gardens, which are all enclosed. This property would be ideal for family use, but also would suit single people and professional couples and in particular active retirement. Rarely does a property of this nature and calibre with this accommodation and gardens come onto the market that is so central and we would urge an early internal inspection in order to fully appreciate what is on offer and to avoid disappointment.
