Looking at the property from the front we have a handsome property set behind a brick containing wall. To the left there is a low maintenance garden boasting mature planted borders. To the right there is off street parking for two vehicles behind which we have a access to the former garage which is now used as a utility/storage room.
Entrance is via a pretty portico through a uPVC door straight in to hallway.
The hallway is typical of the period and light and airy. The stairs are to the right, doors to the 2 reception rooms to the left and a door to the kitchen straight ahead.
The lounge is a super-size and offers plenty of space for a large suite of furniture. The room is tastefully decorated in neutral colours and boasts a pretty bay window over the frontage which floods the room with natural light. The period charm has been enhanced by the multi fuel stove which offers both a focal point and cosy spot for those cosy chilly evenings home.
Further along the hallway there is a door to the second reception room which also serves as the dining room. Once again this is a generously proportioned room with plenty of space for dining and lounge furniture and also boasts a multifuel stove. This room offers a lovely aspect over the rear garden, with French doors with glazed panels either side embracing the view.
The kitchen whilst it would benefit from updating does offer plenty of wall and base units which are in a pale oak finish with chrome handles and complimentary roll top laminate worktops, above which there are country style tiles in shades of yellow and blue There is: Space for a free-standing fridge/freezer, plumbing for a dishwasher, plumbing for a washing machine, an under counter electric oven, integral under counter fridge, four burner gas hob with an extraction unit over and a stainless steel sink with mixer tap over. From here there is a window and a half-glazed uPVC door offering oodles of natural light opening out to the back garden.
Immediately out from here we have a particular feature of this lovely home, the large full contained South facing rear garden which offers a high degree of privacy. To the left of the garden there is a flagged patio area providing options for alfresco dining and/or seating in the warmer months, around to the right we have access to the utility/storage room with the remainder of the garden being laid to lawn. There is a pathway to the rear of the garden to the right-hand side and mature planting to the periphery enhances the sense of privacy. The garden offers a safe space to be enjoyed by all the family.
Back through the property and up to the first floor.
The landing is light and airy with a stunning corner window to the side elevation and period balustrade. From here we have doors off to three bedrooms and the family bathroom.
The first room we come to on our right is the family bathroom which is a really good size and light and bright due to its dual aspect. There is a white suite comprising of: A corner bath with glass splashback and mains shower over, pedestal washbasin and a low level close coupled WC. There is tiling to full height in a white square tile and behind the shower has been clad. The modesty window over the side elevation offers plenty of natural light.
Next to this we have generous double bedroom which has had the chimney breast removed, enhancing the sense of space, and offers plenty of space for a king-sized bed and benefits from a wall of fitted wardrobes and a large window looking out over the rear gardens.
The master bedroom is next and provides a super-sized room with plenty of space for a large suite of furniture and boasts a pretty period bay window to the frontage.
The last room is a single bedroom which also has a window over the front elevation and would serve well as a home office.
All in all we have a fabulous family home with space for the whole family, which has been updated by the vendor during her ownership, and now offers a perfect home to meet the needs of the modern day family. The private rear garden is a sun trap and provides a high degree of privacy. The property is within easy walking distance to Morpeth Town Centre and all it has to offer.
