We welcome to the market this three bedroom semi-detached property located in Nenthead in the North Pennines AONB.
The house was built in 1826, as part of the London Lead Co model village, to house the company's Mine Agent. It was eventually sold into private hands and converted into 2 houses during the 1950s
The property comprises a porch, entrance hallway with under stair storage, lounge, dining room, with access to a pantry, fully secure storage room and kitchen to the ground floor. To the first floor there are three bedrooms, with bedroom 3 having access to the balcony, and a family bathroom. Externally, you have a garden, mainly laid to lawn, rear yard with log store and workshop, both with power and light, and a Driveway with Parking for 3 cars.
The property has been renovated extensively since being purchased in 2018. The property has fully insulated external walls, rewired, solar panels fitted, and an air-source heat pump fitted to keep energy usage under control. The property and all outbuildings have had roof replacements in 2019, improving water repellence. In the main bedroom, there has been a walk-in wardrobe fitted, while still maintaining a good sized bedroom. Bedroom 3 has a door fitted giving access to the balcony, which has been reinforced, and the balcony flooring has been recently renewed, with anti-slip materials being used. There is a garage to the side of the property, which has been fully insulated roof to ensure there is no damp ingress, the garage door is custom made and is big enough to fit a Land Rover Defender 110 with roof rack, and the garage is big enough to fit 2 cars.

It is situated between Stanhope, Allendale and Alston in the picturesque surroundings of Alston Moor in the North Pennines. Nenthead is a close knit community, but is very welcoming to new arrivals. There are many community-based projects, including a play park, shop, toilets and snowplough team. The local recycling area generates funds for the village hall and plans are progressing for a community pub.
