Woodland, Bishop Auckland

Planning permission has been approved to convert and refurbish a former Chapel in Woodland and change the use of the building to a spacious four bedroomed family home. This period stone built property is situated on the outskirts of a quiet rural village and had its planning permission granted in October 2023 to the benefit of the new buyer. Proposals include renovating the building by; removing the render to reveal and repoint the original stonework behind, replace existing windows with timber spring sash windows and timber external doors. The ground floor is to accommodate the bedrooms and first floor to be added to provide kitchen/living/dining space.
Woodland is nestled between the towns Middleton-in-Teesdale, Barnard Castle and Bishop Auckland, surrounded by countryside and farmers fields. The village has a local Primary School and nearby secondary schools are located in Barnard Castle and Staindrop. Pleasantly positioned to enjoy the peace and quiet of village life whilst located only a short distance from amenities including supermarkets, retail stores, cafes and restaurants in the nearby towns. The A688 is just a short distance away for commuters whilst there is a local bus service for public transport.
In brief the proposed floorplans comprise; an entrance hall, study, master king sized bedroom with private shower room, three further double bedrooms, bathroom and utility room to the ground floor. The first floor will be added to accommodate an open plan kitchen/living and dining space. Externally the property has an attached stone built store which is to be used for bin storage. On street parking is available close by.
