The Property
The Mews is a former coachman’s cottage and carriage house conversion, set back within a quiet collection of cottages that brings tranquility to the gentle bustle of the everyday village life of Shotley Bridge. While period features abound in The Mews, a stylish architecturally designed single-storey extension added in 2018 embraces the comforts of modern living and is the well-loved heart of the home, for entertaining or relaxing. The secluded, well-maintained and deceivingly expansive garden to the rear benefits from a southerly aspect, while mature hedging offers a touch of privacy for lazy afternoons on the patio.

Originally built in the 1870’s as a coachman’s cottage, the interiors have now been thoughtfully renovated to highlight the history of the property while bringing a sensitive modernity to the living spaces. From the front door a light filled hallway leads to a sitting room, where an original fireplace is a beautiful focal point, and double-glazed sash windows and wood flooring, paneled walls and original doors add to the abundance of period features. Adjacent to the sitting room is a utility room with ample storage and space for a washer and dryer. Further down the hallway are two spacious bedrooms sitting aside a large family bathroom, fulfilling any accessibility needs if required. Completing the ground floor is a beautifully designed kitchen/diner/living area benefiting from underfloor heating and access to the garden through pocket sliding doors.

Additional skylights drench the kitchen in light no matter the weather, while accent brick walls add a touch of character and texture to the contemporary design. Just off from the kitchen is a scullery that gains from more storage and chic design- an additional sink ensures somewhere to cut flowers, wash paint brushes and rinse muddy clothes, without getting in the way of the cooking. Ascending to the first floor, you can find a tastefully decorated principal bedroom with large storage cupboard and a final fourth bedroom, both of which benefit from a good-sized shower room with further storage for essentials.

The property allows for two separate but connected houses for intergenerational living or for potential bed and breakfast or holiday letting.

Externally
Externally The Mews makes the most of its multi-level terraced south-facing garden which is made up of mature hedging, borders and rockery with established plants and bulbs. A patio wraps around the attractive cladded extension, giving a space to relax and entertain, or just somewhere to enjoy a morning coffee.

From the ample shared yard The Mews also enjoys two private stores, and space to park two cars comfortably.
