Town End Farm, Elton, Stockton On Tees

Architectural heritage meets cutting-edge design in this spectacular Grade II listed barn conversion, completed in 2010 to the highest standards. Set discreetly along a private lane in the picturesque village of Elton, this remarkable home blends the rustic charm of its historic brick façade with striking modern elements, including a dramatic glass entrance and a sleek garden room with a sedum “living” roof. The property sits within approximately one acre of beautifully landscaped grounds, with manicured lawns, mature trees, a vegetable garden, and a 0.5-acre paddock – all framed by the privacy of oak gates and gravel driveways. The living accommodation briefly comprises to the ground floor, Glass-Fronted Entrance & Hall, step through a full-height glazed doorway beneath a soaring arch into an entrance hall bathed in natural light, setting the stage for the home’s breathtaking interiors. At the heart of the property is an awe-inspiring open plan living and dining space, crowned by a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams. The bespoke floating staircase rises like a sculptural centrepiece, while a double-sided open log fire provides both warmth and architectural drama. Designer Kitchen & Dining space, the “Parapan” kitchen combines seamless minimalist design with high-performance integrated appliances. Its expansive island and worktops make it a joy for both family meals and entertaining, while bi-fold doors blur the line between indoors and out, opening onto a private terrace and the glass garden room. The contemporary glass sun lounge creates a year-round connection to the landscaped gardens, perfect for relaxed mornings or evening drinks with a view of the grounds. There is a versatile reception room, ideal as a private study, cosy snug, or additional bedroom. The inner hall reveals a walk-in storage room, cloakroom, and well-appointed utility, leading directly to the converted garage – a flexible space with kitchen annexe potential. A sleek glazed corridor connects the main house to the beautifully adapted former double garage. Complete with bathroom and living space, it serves equally well as an additional guest suite, home office, or a self-contained one-bedroom annexe with its own private entrance. To the first floor from the floating staircase, a mezzanine gallery overlooks the main living area, accentuated by mood-lit skirting and rich timber beams. Situated off this to either end of the property lies two luxurious bedrooms, each with exposed character features, generous dressing areas, and stylish en suite bathrooms. Reached via a secondary floating staircase, these two further second floor en suite bedrooms enjoy elevated views over the gardens, offering private havens for family or guests. The Grounds encompass gardens as impressive as the interiors – from the gravelled forecourt framed by potted topiary, to sweeping lawns edged with stone borders, to the 0.5-acre grass paddock. A useful outbuilding offers further scope for a home office or studio (previously approved for conversion). This is more than a home – it is a lifestyle statement, combining historical gravitas with modern architectural brilliance in a secluded yet highly connected location.
