The current owners have commissioned a number of esteemed local artisan craftspeople to create bespoke original pieces for the property including not only the wrought iron railings, but stained glass windows, stonework, contemporary furniture and fittings and inspiring individual murals that reflect not only the owners creativity and flair, but are also intrinsic in reflecting the property's architecture and origins.
The interior conversion has been thoughtfully orchestrated to take advantage of the natural light which streams through the gothic style hardwood windows and reflects beautifully on the curved walls, which are successfully combined with contemporary high spec finishes. The striking open glass and timber staircases compliment the original character in the stone windows and door arches. There is natural light and space in abundance thanks to the open-plan layout of the ground-floor and first floor living areas. A modern double extension to the side of the Unnamed House is sympathetic in character to the original building, with exposed stonework and arched windows. Externally there is a new Burlington slate roof, conservation skylights and an esteemed local stonemason, who specialises in historic buildings, has worked to provide and restore the external and internal stonework allowing the extension to dovetail with the original property.
The degree of thought and attention to detail, which has gone into the interior conversion, has been continued through to the garden areas, which include a delightful patio area with mature raised beds and terrace areas leading down to the private walled garden. Unnamed House is quietly situated in the village of Middleton Tyas which is a thriving village with local shop, primary school and public house. It is particularly well located being within 1.5 miles of Scotch Corner providing access to the A1(M) and A66. The nearby towns of Richmond and Darlington offer a wide variety of amenities including national and local retailers, a large range of bars, restaurants, cinemas, sports centres, theatres, main line train station and state and private educational opportunities at both primary and secondary level.
