JP Harll in association with



Rural, yet conveniently located on the approach to the most sought-after village of Elwick, this contemporary Bungalow lies within approximately 0.37 acre of manicured gardens. A few minutes from the A19, A179 and just 3.7 miles to Hartlepool, discover the panoramic views from Shindells.
Approaching this characterful Tyrolean rendered property you find mature trees and planting framing the scene, trimmed with a smooth green ribbon of wraparound hedging. Settled behind wrought iron gates, a Tarmac driveway opens out to provide courtyard style parking and turning for all manner of vehicles. The double garage boasts an Electric Roller-shutter door and Zappy EV Charger.
Stepping through the front entrance door, the extended porch is open plan to the generous hallway. Oak effect laminate stretches out underfoot, leading you through this expansive home.
Taking the first bevelled glass panel Oak door on your right, you are welcomed into the real heart of the home, the living/dining kitchen. The dining area boasts a generous window, which overlooks the courtyard area. The imposing chimney breast is stocked high with logs but could be opened should you wish to install a log-burner. (although the four large radiators more than provide enough heat).
The bespoke Lusso designed Kitchen, boasts Quartz worktops, island and breakfast bar. Built in cooking facilities include NEFF Eye-Level, hide-and-slide oven and NEFF Combi Microwave/Oven. The NEFF Induction, four ring hob with extractor fan sits within the centre island. Integrated appliances include a full-sized Hotpoint Fridge, a full-sized Hotpoint Freezer and Bosch Dishwasher. A 1 ½ bowl, Stainless Steel, under-mount sink sits beneath a further ‘Courtyard view’ window.
The breakfast bar provides ample space for six and boasts a pop-up Electric ‘three socket and USB’ set.
Beyond the kitchen area is the perfect place to retire after dinner. Enjoy the views over the Tees Valley and the sea beyond due to the elevated position, from the luxury of your comfy sofas, through the bi-folding doors and the perfect square picture window.
Off the kitchen area is a laundry room, where there is space to host a stackable washing machine and tumble dryer. A further door leads through into the Helmanis and Howell ground floor cloaks/w.c.
On the opposite side of the hall, the lounge awaits. Dressed in warm calming tones, this room is perfect for when the weather sets in during Winter. With a large Log Burning stove sitting centre-stage, this room is made for Winter entertaining with all the family.
Returning to the hall, let’s continue through the bevelled glass Oak divider, separating the living area to the sleeping quarters. This space has doors leading to three bedrooms, the family bathroom and the staircase leading to the first floor Principal Bedroom.
Bedroom Two is a generous sized King-sized bedroom. Imagine throwing open the French doors which open out onto the Glazed Juliette Balcony. The views of the back garden and the cows in the fields beyond are breathtaking as the Sun comes up on a morning.
Bedroom Three is a further King-sized bedroom, with Lusso designed bespoke made-to-measure fitted wardrobes, making storage troubles a thing of the past. The large window offers a rare glimpse of the Indian Stone Patio area and Hercules octagonal greenhouse. This serene scene is the perfect spot for your morning coffee, especially if you want to hide away with a good book.
Bedroom Four is a good-sized ‘double’ bedroom.
Soak away the stresses of the day in the fully tiled Natural Travertine family bathroom. Boasting a free standing Naturla Stone Clearwater Formoso Grande Bath, perfect for two. A Mira mini-lux walk-in-shower, Barker and Stonehouse unit with Quartz top set under a Naturla Stone Formoso sink and Britton super-slim back-to wall w.c. To complete the bathroom is a heated towel rail, wall-hung bathroom storage unit and extractor fan.
But that’s not all.
Seek sanctuary on the second floor in the sublime Principal bedroom suite. A grown-up haven, as you reach the top of the galleried landing, where there is a perfect study area, with doors to your very own shoe-drobe and walk-in fitted dressing room.
The bedroom area offers space for the largest of beds, as well as a separate seating area for intimate evenings watching an old movie.
Admire the elegant angles of the roofline and light-filled living afforded by the large Keylite roof windows and two windows which feature on each gable end, capturing leafy views from multiple directions.
Enjoy the luxury of a slipper bath in your ensuite bathroom, with vanity wash hand basin, set within bathroom furniture and back to wall w.c. A double wall-hung bathroom cabinet, heated towel rail and extractor fan complete the space.
The jewel of this property is the outside space. Sweeping lawns, mature gardens brimming with specimen plants, pretty flowering shrubs and seating areas galore. Several fruit trees will keep you supplied with more than enough Apples, Pears, Plums and Blackcurrants to make delicious fruit crumbles to enjoy after your Sunday roast dinner.
At the top of the garden is a large, decked patio area, which you step out onto from the bi-folding doors in the Kitchen. This space is a perfect spot to survey the garden and take in the views of the valley beyond.
Further down, on the left is a Porcelain tiled patio area. This is a perfect sheltered area for a spot of lunch, especially when a sea-breeze is blowing.
Across the garden is a Granite patio area which is covered by a bespoke Pergola, boasting: light, power and an infer-red heater. Beneath the patio is a beautiful pond with feature waterfall and UV filter system. Time truly stands still when enjoying long evenings here.
Next to the Pergola is the Summerhouse, which is currently used as a gym, however this would also make a lovely home-office or craft room as it benefits from light and power.
At the bottom of the garden, through the picket gate is the chicken coop and run.
The ‘working’ part of the garden is hidden behind the garage, where there is a generous ‘man-cave’ shed and space for tools, bins and compost heap.
For peace, tranquillity and spacious living, Shindells in the rural village of Elwick eagerly awaits your acquaintance.
