5 bed detached house for sale

The Post Office, Station Road, Seaham, County Durham SR7

A rare opportunity to purchase this substantial detached five‐bedroom property, set on an impressive approx. 570 sqm plot, offering outstanding development potential or scope for reconfiguration, subject to the necessary planning permissions. This freehold site is offered with no chain and is being sold in partnership with I Am Sold Auction.

The home begins with an entrance porch leading into a spacious main lounge, a bright and welcoming living area that flows through to the modern, well‐appointed kitchen. From here, a rear lobby provides direct access to the rear land/garden, creating a practical link between the interior and exterior spaces. To the rear of the property sits a generous utility room, complete with additional storage and a workbench, ideal for hobbies or workspace needs.

The property also benefits from a secondary entrance, which opens directly into a reception space. From here, you continue into the inner hallway, giving access to a further rear reception room and a conservatory. This layout offers excellent flexibility for multi‐use living or business‐related purposes, particularly given the building's history as the former Post Office.

Ascending to the first floor, you pass a charming stained‐glass window on the half landing. The upper level features four generous double bedrooms and one single bedroom with loft access. Three of the bedrooms benefit from bespoke fitted wardrobes, and the floor is completed by a spacious family bathroom.

Externally, the property includes a workshop leading through to a garage, both equipped with power and lighting-ideal for storage, trades, or future conversion. Additional benefits include partial double glazing and oak internal doors. The generous plot further enhances the appeal for future development or site reconfiguration.
