Whinfell Road, Darras Hall, Ponteland, Newcastle upon Tyne

Located on a beautiful mature garden site of just over 0.5 acres, is this fabulous detached family bungalow. The property is set back from Whinfell Road and was purchased by the current owner in 2021, after which it was significantly refurbished, extended and modernised.

The bungalow now provides an outstanding luxury detached property, it has a lovely approach and gated entrance leading down the driveway to the open courtyard with parking for many cars. The bungalow has an attached twin set of garages, one of which is partially converted to provide a utility room, and the other is a large single plus garage.

The house has a super approach and entrance into its main reception vestibule, with delightful wood flooring and door leading off to a cloak’s storage cupboard, as well as a super cloakroom WC.

The night passageway links onto three bedrooms, the master bedroom has been well extended and has its own private patio and large picture windows overlooking the south facing gardens. It is a beautiful master bedroom suite with its own private dressing room and fitted wardrobes, as well as a luxury ensuite bathroom with a separate shower and slipper bath with superb tiling and benefitting from underfloor heating.

There are two further double bedrooms, which both have built in wardrobes and storage cupboards and views over the side of the house, and they have access to a separate shower room WC, with underfloor heating, which has also been modernised to a very high standard over the last 2 years.

The main sitting room has delightful flooring and slightly sunken floor level, which overlooks the south facing garden with bi-folding doors. The sitting room itself has a high capacity log burning fire, which is delightful in the winter months giving off a great deal of heat which circulates throughout the whole of the bungalow.

The entrance hallway leads off to its own dining room, which is currently used as a snug and family room, as well as an office, and enjoys fabulous views over the gardens.

The kitchen/dining room is to the side of the property, also enjoying a southerly aspect, and has been completely refurbished to a very high standard. It has beautiful painted wood cabinets with a central square island and Corian worktops, as well as electric built in appliances including a microwave oven, dishwasher, fridge freezer and a cooking range. The Corian worktops are fantastic and the flooring is very impressive, as well the spot lighting, and double doors lead from the breakfast area into the gardens. A door leads and connects from the kitchen into the single first garage, which has a storage area and access into the utility and laundry room with excellent store cupboards. The single plus garage leads to the side of the bungalow.

The property has electric modern lighting and wiring, as well as electric heating system which is newly installed.

The property has replacement double glazed windows and very attractive aspect overlooking its gardens. The garden site is mature and private and includes a number of lovely sitting areas and terraces, especially opposite the sitting room, the kitchen and the main master bedroom suite. The gardens to just over ½ an acre and have been beautifully kept and maintained, with a working greenhouse and an abundance of flowers, plants and shrubs, which give good colour throughout the year. 

43a Whinfell Road enjoys convenient accessibility to the shopping facilities in Darras Hall, as well as the schools nearby, and the easy road links on Middle Drive into the centre of Ponteland village with its historic church, lovely restaurants and local amenities. Good road links give immediate access to the airport, as well as to Newcastle City Centre. 

This is a highly impressive property in a great location and we would strongly recommend immediate viewing to avoid later disappointment.
