Sharpley Hall, Seaton

Bradley Hall is delighted to welcome to the market Sharpley Hall, an impressive four-bedroom detached family home occupying a generous and private plot in a desirable semi-rural setting, complete with a substantial self-contained one-bedroom annexe, gated driveway, extensive parking and large double garage.

Set within mature grounds and approached via a gated entrance, the property offers an excellent combination of space, privacy and versatility. The separate annexe provides particularly valuable additional accommodation, making Sharpley Hall ideally suited to multi-generational living, visiting family and guests, working from home or a variety of other uses.

The main house is entered through a welcoming reception hall, which provides access to the principal ground-floor accommodation and incorporates a convenient WC. The generous lounge enjoys an abundance of natural light from its multiple windows and provides an inviting space in which to relax, with a multi-fuel stove creating an attractive focal point.

A separate study provides an ideal home office or additional reception space and benefits from fitted storage, while the versatile family room offers further generous living and dining accommodation with attractive views across the gardens.

At the heart of the home is the spacious kitchen and breakfast room, fitted with an extensive range of wall and base units complemented by granite work surfaces and a central island. The room provides ample space for informal dining and flows conveniently into the adjoining family accommodation, creating a sociable setting for everyday family life and entertaining. A separate utility room provides additional storage and practical laundry facilities.

To the first floor, a spacious landing leads to four well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom provides an impressive suite with its own en-suite bathroom and walk-in dressing room, while the remaining bedrooms offer excellent flexibility for family members, guests or additional home-working space. A further family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.

A significant feature of Sharpley Hall is the detached self-contained annexe, offering accommodation extending to approximately 98 sq m (1,055 sq ft). The annexe incorporates an open-plan garden room with fitted kitchen facilities, a bedroom/living area and shower room, alongside an adjoining double garage measuring approximately 7.00m x 8.80m. This versatile building considerably enhances the property’s appeal and provides excellent potential for independent living accommodation.

Externally, Sharpley Hall sits within generous established grounds, with extensive lawns, mature trees, hedging and planted borders creating an attractive backdrop and a high degree of privacy. There are substantial areas for outdoor seating and entertaining, while the gated driveway provides ample off-road parking for numerous vehicles and access to the double garage.

Combining substantial family accommodation with extensive grounds and exceptionally versatile ancillary space, Sharpley Hall represents a rare opportunity to acquire an individual home in an attractive semi-rural position while remaining conveniently placed for Seaham, Sunderland, Durham and the wider North East.

Sharpley Hall occupies an attractive semi-rural position at Seaton, surrounded by the rolling countryside of County Durham yet conveniently located for Seaham and the wider North East.
The property is positioned close to Sharpley Golf Course and enjoys a setting that provides a strong sense of privacy and countryside living without being isolated. Seaton village offers a selection of local amenities, while a much broader range of everyday services, shops, leisure facilities and places to eat can be found in nearby Seaham.
Seaham itself is particularly well known for its attractive coastline and provides access to the Durham Heritage Coast, Seaham Harbour Marina and the town’s popular seafront. For further retail and leisure facilities, Dalton Park is also within convenient reach. From Seaham Train Station there is a direct train to London Kings Cross .
Despite its semi-rural surroundings, Sharpley Hall is exceptionally well placed for commuters. The nearby A19 provides convenient north-south connections throughout the region, with Seaham approximately 6 miles south of Sunderland, 13 miles east of Durham City and 20 miles south of Newcastle.
Public transport connections are also available, with bus stops on Seaton Lane and Seaham railway station providing services along the Durham Coast Line, including connections towards Sunderland, Newcastle and Teesside.
The location therefore offers an appealing balance: generous space, mature surroundings and a countryside atmosphere, combined with straightforward access to the coast, major employment centres and the principal road and rail networks of the North East.
