Originally built in the late 1980s, the house has been extended and improved to provide a spacious and versatile detached house that should appeal particularly to those looking for a well presented family home that superbly combines elements of contemporary open-plan living with additional, separate rooms such as the family room and office/study.

The house has uPVC double glazing and gas central heating, with a Baxi system boiler and a solar photovoltaic panel that supplements the water heating, and there is also a handy electric car charging point.

The accommodation comprises, on the ground floor: entrance hall with a new composite front door, living room with oak flooring, open into the dining area to the rear, with patio doors to the garden, and which is also open to the kitchen fitted with a wooden-top breakfast bar and matching wooden worktops, painted units and integrated appliances. Off the dining area, a sliding pocket door leads into the utility room and through to the family room, which was converted from the original garage and provides an excellent additional reception room that could be used for a variety of purposes. Also off the hallway is the office/study, which has a built-in desk, the W.C. and a cupboard under the stairs that houses the boiler.

The stairs lead up to the first floor, where the L-shaped landing has a built-in cupboard and further built-in wardrobes, which provide excellent storage space on the way along to the main bedroom, which also has fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room that includes twin wash basins, a shower cubicle and W.C.. The second bedroom has fitted wardrobes, the third bedroom looks over the garden to the rear, while the fourth bedroom has overhead storage cupboards to one side. The family bathroom is fitted with a tiled-panelled bath and has a separate shower cubicle with a Triton electric shower. There are two loft spaces, which are both partially boarded, and are accessed from hatches on the landing and the main bedroom.

Externally, there is a block-paved driveway to the front, with space to park at least two cars and with the electric car charger, as well as a lawned garden. To the rear is an attractive and well-proportioned garden with a flagged patio area/path and two steps up to a raised and enclosed lawned garden with borders, a pebbled seating area, a shed, a playhouse and a path to the side. There is a small woodland area behind the garden, giving the house a good degree of seclusion and privacy to the rear. There is a footpath next to the property and Rowlands Gill Primary School is situated just along from the house, on the opposite side.

The house is situated within the popular and rarely available Dominies Close estate towards the edge of Rowlands Gill village, and within close proximity of the school (rated 'Good' by Ofted in June 2023) and the Under-Fives Playgroup (rated 'Outstanding' in March 2024). The estate is just off Lockhaugh Road / A694 and is approximately 0.7 miles from the village centre, where there are shops and facilities including a GP surgery, Boots pharmacy, Post Office/Shop, a cafe, sandwich shop, barbers/salons and a Tesco Express. It is approximately 7.5 miles from Newcastle city centre and there are regular buses along the A694 serving the area, including the MetroCentre. There are several popular countryside walks and cycle routes within this semi-rural area in the Derwent Valley, including the nearby Thornley Woods and Red Kite Trail and the Derwent Walk, in addition to the extensive National Trust grounds of the Gibside estate, at the edge of the village.
