Situated on the corner of Ashtree Close and Sherburn Park Drive, the house provides elevated views over part of Rowlands Gill and towards the Gibside Estate, with the plans for the extension designed to maximise this vantage point. This popular 1960s-built estate is comprised of various styles of houses and bungalows (as well as some more recently built homes on the grounds of the old school) and is located off the A694 / Lockhaugh Road in Rowlands Gill. It is just 0.4 miles from Rowlands Gill Primary School (Ofsted rated 'Good' in June 2023), and approximately 0.8 miles from the centre of Rowlands Gill village, which is a popular semi-rural village in the Derwent Valley with shops and some amenities, just over 8 miles from Newcastle city centre, 10 miles from the airport and 4 miles from the nearest junction of the A1(M). There are popular local countryside walks - including the famous Red Kite Trail - and cycle routes, while the popular National Trust grounds of Gibside are also close to the village centre.

The planning permission for the proposed double-storey extension was approved in April 2023 and is valid for three years thereafter. The plans can be viewed here: https://bit.ly/3w7BcyK
