Tees View, Hurworth Place, County Durham DL2 2DH
Discover Pegasus House, a distinctly unique home
perched in the popular village of Hurworth, close to
Darlington. In the last 150 years, only a handful of
owners have enjoyed the privilege of calling this
unique property home…will you be next in this
prestigious line?
Tucked away from passers by on the locally known
'menagerie row', the Grade II Listed building with its
striking frontage reminiscent of its rich history forms
part of the local landscape.
Arriving by car follow round behind into Linden Road
and its sprinkling of neighbours, and pull inside your
private wooden gates and park up in front of your
annexe and garage; there's plenty of room.
Heading along the gravel pathway to the front door
you instantly sense the serenity of this secluded spot:
a haven for the discerning who would love to enjoy this
unique retreat.
Explore this most versatile and distinctive of family
homes. A hardy wooden floor in the entrance hallway
provides a warm welcome. Traditional wooden doors
lead off to the left and right. Slip through the former to
the breathtaking reception rooms...
With surprisingly high ceilings for a property of this
vintage, the formal dining room embodies style and
traditional charm. Open plan and flowing through into
the living room the effect is truly awe inspiring.
A light and inviting room, overlooking the front garden,
enjoy early morning sun in here through the original
casement windows. Beneath your feet, original wood
flooring completes the scene of traditional rusticity.
Atop the stone hearth, a multi-fuel burner sits within a
heritage green feature wall, ensuring this vast space is
kept warm and snug whatever the weather outside.
Both the welcoming living area and quirky dining area,
are ready to bend themselves into whatever shape you
require.
The kitchen is next, contemporary units and an array
of appliances including a range oven and dishwasher to
make cooking for the family a joy and so practical for
entertaining friends.
You'll love it in summer with the door open allowing a
balmy breeze to pass through, and with room for your
breakfast table you can create an area for morning
coffee and croissants with views outside over the patio.
And it certainly isn't style over substance in this home,
tucked away is the neat utility area making space for
the laundry to be cared for out of sight.
Back to where we started at the entrance hallway take
the first door on the right, the spacious master
bedroom waits, making the very most of the leafy
views out over the front of the house, the heritage
continues with the original fireplace. Enjoy the first
cuppa of the day from the comfort of the king-size bed
in the first l ight of the day.
Next door on your right a further king-size bedroom
enjoys views to the private courtyard to the back
another fireplace, access to bedroom three is across
this room.
The last bedroom in this part of the property is a
comfortable double and a further room which has the
plumbing ready to convert to an en-suite bathroom.
Back into the hallway and to the last doorway which leads
to the family bathroom. Soak those tired muscles,
following an exhilarating riverside walk, in the roomy claw
foot bath, or blast yourself awake in the morning in the
walk in glass and tiled separate shower. You will feel like
you're in a fine hotel.
Outside we cross the courtyard to the Annexe and extra
space, could this be a separate family home, an art studio,
a holiday let? The options are endless as you head inside
and your mind starts to whirr.
A useful ground floor room which would work as a study
or additional bedroom and with stairs peeling off we head
up.
Along the hallway to the end, past the independent front
door and making for the ideal place for visiting family to
visit or a permanent home. Discover the living room, a
cosy space to relax and dine with room for a table and
chairs.
Back into the hallway and into the kitchen, a more than
adequate space with room to bake away or master the
microwave. Once again into the hallway and to the
bedroom, a large double bedroom with plenty of space
and just as stylish as the main house with fashionably blue
walls creating a cosy retreat.
Lastly the bathroom that completes the annexe, a
traditional style with a shower over the bath and ready
to welcome guests.
Heading back outside where the early sun can be best
enjoyed from the seating area on the lower patio
beyond the kitchen window. The garage becomes the
perfect place to store your treasured bike or classic
car, tinkering away on a weekend in the privacy of
your fully enclosed grounds.
Out and about
Enjoy Sunday riverside strolls followed by lunch in one
of the delightful local pubs or the Comet Hotel. For
more formal occasions the nearby Rockcliffe Hall Hotel
provides a delectable treat, if golf is your thing The
award winning golf course on your door step is a big
attraction along with the spa!
For shopping head to the near by market towns of
Northallerton or Darlington and if commuting is
important your only 10 minutes away from the A1 and
you can be in Kings Cross Station in 2h20m.
