With its eye-catching design, the property offers over 2200 sq. ft of light, airy and versatile accommodation featuring a stylish format destined to appeal to many discening buyers. Neutral décor creates an ambience of uncomplicated calm, with beautiful wood flooring across much of the ground floor offering practicality and a pleasing cohesion across living areas. The sitting room is centred around an attractive fireplace with oak lintel and inset electric fire, and at the rear of the home an open-plan kitchen/dining/snug area provides a convivial hub with a relaxed family room adjoining. Fitted with contemporary cabinetry, integrated appliances and stone work surfaces, the kitchen has an island unit which forms a subtle divide within this sociable space where bi-folds and French doors extend the inside to the outside setting.

Glimpses of the galleried landing are revealed in the reception hall where the stairway rises to a roomy landing which gives access to five bedrooms and a stylishly-appointed family bathroom. The principal room offers a luxurious retreat with walk-in wardrobe and a smart en suite shower room, with a second room also benefitting from en suite facilities.

A neat row of shrubs fronts the lane with a wide paved driveway providing parking and giving access to the integral garage, as well as a route to the sheltered entrance portal. A field beyond the rear boundary provides an open aspect with paved terracing spanning the back of the house offering opportunities for outdoor dining and relaxation. A decked platform runs along the boundary, leading to a garden room that offers a sheltered area for enjoying the outdoors in all weather conditions. A raised timber-edged bed provides a planting pocket and a designated area with a soft-surface provides a children’s play area in this family-friendly outdoor setting.

The property is located on the fringes of the popular and bustling Northumberland Market town of Morpeth. It combines a wide range of restaurants and bars, stylish shopping facilities, a beautiful park and the William Turner Garden. There is also an extensive range of amenities, including supermarkets, dentist
and doctor’s surgeries, a leisure centre and a golf course. Outstanding-rated schools in the area include The King Edward VI Academy and Abbeyfield First School.
