Set across three floors, this six-bedroom home combines the warmth of a traditional cottage with smart, modern upgrades. Once a doctor’s surgery, the house is full of character, with charming period features such as original servants’ bells, woodblock flooring, and solid, well-proportioned rooms that create a sense of comfort and calm.

Should a purchaser(s) have an offer accepted on a property marketed by Fine & County Durham and North Yorkshire they will need to undertake an identification check. This is done to meet our obligation under Anti Money Laundering Regulations (AML) and is a legal requirement. We use a specialist third party service to verify your identity. The cost of these checks is £45.00 plus VAT per buyer, which is paid in advance, when an offer is agreed and prior to a sales memorandum being issued. This charge is non-refundable.

Step Outside:
Although centrally located within the village, the property offers excellent privacy once inside the gates. The front and side gardens are attractively planted, while the re-laid driveway provides parking for three vehicles behind secure gates.
To the rear, the private garden is a standout feature. It includes a summer house, low-maintenance artificial lawn, and mature planting that offers a quiet, enclosed feel. A separate purpose-built structure, originally designed as a spa pool, now serves as a fully functioning garden office - ideal for remote work, hobbies, or studio use.
Over the years, the garden has hosted both family celebrations and community fundraisers. It’s a space that invites you to relax, entertain, or simply enjoy the peace. The setting feels far removed from the village centre, yet everything you need is just around the corner.
This is a rare opportunity to enjoy the charm of a period cottage-style home with generous space, modern touches, and a location that balances convenience with privacy.

Location: Situated in the heart of Pelton village, this property enjoys a highly convenient yet surprisingly private setting. A short walk brings you to local shops, takeaways, a postbox, and the well-used community centre, while the nearby bus stops provide regular services to Chester-le-Street, Newcastle, Beamish, and beyond. Chester-le-Street’s mainline railway station is just two miles away, offering direct connections to Durham, Newcastle, and London in under three hours. The A1(M) and A693 are both within easy reach, ensuring excellent road access across the region. Despite the central location, the property is tucked away behind gates and mature planting, offering a peaceful environment with all the benefits of village life on the doorstep.
