Adderstone Crescent,Jesmond,Newcastle Upon Tyne,NE2

Description

Shirley Lodge was originally constructed circa 1900 and represents one of only a small number of very substantial detached houses within Adderstone Crescent. The location is regarded as the prime residential address within Newcastle. This house was purchased by the current owners in 1999 and has been significantly overhauled and refurbished to a very high standard. The property now offers a beautiful home in a very prestigious location.

The front of the house has a very wide approach with two access gates, one to the northern drive and one to the principal driveway which leads to a double plus garage. The garage also has planning permission to be converted to a studio if required.

The house has great style and character; it has fabulous individual architectural features, with beautiful windows and attractive brickwork which contrasts with the slate roof. Some of the ground floor internal doors have recently been replaced with bespoke oak wood doors with glazed panels and chrome door furniture.

The house contrasts between period quality architecture and contemporary interiors, as witnessed by the fitting of plantation shutters to many of the windows.

The reception hall leads from an impressive vestibule. It is substantial in size and is a magnificent focal point of the property, enjoying great natural light from the large landing window. The hall has its own fireplace and leads on to a garden porch and laundry room at the rear. Connecting from the principal hall is a separate cloakroom and wc.

There are four principal reception rooms to the ground floor; a large drawing room which may originally have been constructed as a billiard or games room. It has an inglenook fireplace and double doors onto the west facing gardens. The principal sitting room is at the front of the property and is a very elegant room, with magnificent fireplace and lovely aspect. It has a door that leads onto the dining room, an equally elegant room with large windows and superb fireplace. The family room is at the rear and has a bay window overlooking the gardens. This room is currently used as a study.

The kitchen/breakfasting room stretches the whole depth of the property to the front and rear. It is fitted with a range of cream cabinets, an Aga and built-in appliances. The garden room leads from the kitchen at the rear and has double doors onto the gardens, as well as a log burning effect gas fire set into a stove. There is a side porch and entrance, with separate doors to front and rear gardens.

To the first floor of the property the principal landing is very substantial and enjoys an aspect to the west. It leads onto five bedrooms; the master bedroom has its own luxury en-suite bathroom and excellent fitted wardrobes. There are three further substantial bedrooms, as well as a fifth bedroom which is currently used as a dressing room with fitted wardrobes and storage. The family bathroom has been refitted in recent times with an impressive suite. There is a also a separate wc and a shower room which has been refitted as a wet room.

The main stairs then continue to the second floor of the house, where there is a self contained apartment which has its own private landing, a large lounge, and a kitchen which has been refitted by John Lewis. The second floor apartment has its own individual heating system, two large double bedrooms at the front and a bathroom.

The property has the benefit of a gas radiator central heating system, with high capacity boiler which has been installed in recent years and complements the period radiators to many of the main ground floor reception areas.

The gardens are a lovely feature of this period home. At the rear they are west facing with large lawns, mature trees and excellent terraces and patios with lighting. The front of the property is also very well laid out and landscaped, with rockery beds, mature trees and two driveways.

Shirley Lodge is a beautiful home in one of Jesmond's most sought after residential areas. It has easy access into the conservation area of Jesmond Dene and links to Osborne Road, Acorn Road and Clayton Road, where there are tremendous shopping facilities and restaurants.

This property is well suited to prospective buyers looking for a significant family home within the heart of Newcastle.
