Alnwick, with its cobbled streets and beautiful old buildings, has recently had the honour of being voted one of the best places to live in the UK.

The town benefits from excellent transport links with frequent buses between Berwick, Morpeth and Newcastle and is a short drive to Alnmouth train station and, as it is situated just moments from the A1, it is perfect for those needing to commute. There is an excellent selection of local food retailers, delis, bakeries and butchers as well as larger chain supermarkets. The town centre also has excellent amenities including several banks, GP surgeries, dental practices and a fabulous leisure centre to name but a few.

Entry is via the front door into an internal porch. A further door opens into the main hallway with stairs leading to the first floor and various doors leading off.

The first main door leads to a large, lovely light and bright lounge which is dual aspect, with windows to the front and sliding patio doors leading to the rear garden. The room has been tastefully and neutrally decorated forming a wonderfully comfortable room in which to relax and enjoy the views both over Alnwick towards the countryside, and out to the rear garden.

The second reception room is located across the hallway in the extended part of the home With windows all round and sliding patio doors leading to the rear garden, the room is bathed in natural light and allows the beauty of the outside space to enter inside so easily. The Scandinavian feel is immediately evident as you enter this stunning and spacious multi-use room.

The kitchen is another spacious light and bright room with a window affording wonderful views over Alnwick to the countryside beyond. It offers plenty of solid wood door wall and base units, including display cabinets, all complemented by a grey work surface. There is a bowl and a half stainless steel sink, a fully integrated Bosch dishwasher and a four-burner gas hob with a large chimney style extractor fan above. In addition, there is an eyelevel NEFF double oven. The room has been finished with an attractive neutral cream splash back tile and spotlights to the ceiling. A further window between the second reception room and the kitchen allows further natural light to enter.

A door leads from the kitchen to a large utility/boot room where there is a good number of wall and base units, a single bowl stainless steel sink, plumbing and space for a washing machine, space for a tumble dryer and freezer. The Vaillant gas boiler is housed in here for ease of access. The white splashback tiling creates a crisp and fresh finish.

There is a spacious cupboard beneath the stairs offering excellent storage potential. The downstairs WC comprises a white WC and a pedestal wash hand basin with tiling behind. A window overlooking the front allows for natural light.

Taking the stairs to the first floor and passing a stunning full height window, affording beautiful views of the garden on the half landing, the spacious landing, with loft access above, opens out to 4 bedrooms and the family bathroom. The master bedroom is an incredibly spacious dual-aspect double and captures views over the coast, hills and the garden. There are two built-in wardrobes.

Bedroom 2 is another good-sized double with a built-in wardrobe and a window overlooking the rear of the property. A lovely light and bright room.

All these beautifully light and bright rooms have been tastefully decorated and some are furnished with brand-new carpets.

The family bathroom has been extended and is a fabulous size, the suite comprises a large separate shower cubicle, a white bath and a pedestal wash hand basin. The separate WC, which was formerly the family bathroom prior to the house extension, is adjacent to the bathroom, and the two rooms could easily be combined to make one incredibly large space or to create a separate office or nursery, or dressing room. There is a vanity unit incorporating storage with a sink on top and a white WC. The space is almost fully tiled creating a sleek finish. Natural light enters both these areas via windows that overlook the front of the property

Externally, the property boasts a wonderful, very large, secluded, South and West Facing garden with mature hedges, beds and trees and all day sunshine. The rear garden offers a unique, private space with lovely views and extensive wildlife and showcases a paved area, perfect for alfresco dining, leading up to a lawned area framed by mature borders, well stocked with attractive shrubs. To the far side there are two more lawned areas incorporating raised beds ideal for growing vegetables. A further paved area to the side offers an alternative area to enjoy outside dining or the odd glass of wine during those warm summer months whilst taking advantage of the lovely views from the wonderfully elevated position of this beautiful family home.

The home has recently had solar power installed with domestic battery storage in the garage. This is guaranteed and is connected to the grid for export of excess power. The solar array provides most of the electricity for the property and will generate hundreds of pounds per year through the export of electricity to the grid.
