Elwick Road, Hartlepool, TS26 0

Rare to the market, Mansard is a beautiful 4 Bedroom Detached family home within the highly desirable location of Elwick Road, close to Ward Jackson Park. This wonderfully unique self-build home occupies a generous plot, inclusive of lawned gardens to both the front and rear, long block-paved driveway and a detached single garage to the rear with power. This 1930’s home is duly named after its architectural roof style, with a French inspired Mansard roof, with its iconic multi-sided gambrel-style hip roof with protruding dormer windows to the main front elevation. On arrival, the front presents a high brick walled perimeter with pillared entrance, ideal for anyone looking to add electric gates. The front lawn is lovingly adorned with mature plants, shrubs, trees and mini privets.

The main house sits rotated 90 degrees within the plot, with the front façade and main entrance located effectively to the left-hand side, facing the driveway. As you enter the home you’re welcomed into a spacious reception hallway, with a soft sage green carpet underfoot and a staircase running up the wall to the left. Off the hallway to the left, you’ll find a well-proportioned snug room with a beautiful feature fireplace in the far corner, with a large window to the front aspect and a further window overlooking the private rear garden. The room enjoys a high ceiling and a soft light carpet, under which you’ll discover wooden flooring.

Opposite the snug, to the right as you enter, there’s a generous living room which spans full aspect with a large brick feature fireplace with a log burner. The room is flooded with natural light, as a result of two windows overlooking the front garden, with a third looking out onto the drive. This room is perfect for enjoying family time or entertaining friends.

To the rear of the hallway there’s a guest washroom, enjoying half height natural toned tiles flowing around the walls and floor, with a modern white toilet and wall mounted sink.

To the left of the guest washroom, you’ll discover an impressive kitchen & breakfast room, with light stone floor tiles and a beautiful Shaker style kitchen with an array of units finished in a blend of blue (lower) and cream (upper) with lovely tactile wooden butchers’ block worktops. The kitchen is complimented by a stylish Butler sink, and a stunning black freestanding range cooker, inset within a feature recess with black granite splashback and oak mantle, inclusive of a discreet extractor. There’s a half-glazed door leading out from the corner of the kitchen into the rear garden.


As you ascend the staircase, you’re welcomed onto a spacious first floor landing, which plays host to 4 Bedrooms and a family bathroom. The family bathroom is centrally located, at the head of the staircase and is an indulgent space, fitted with a built-in jacuzzi bath, traditional style sink & toilet, along with curved walk-in shower unit. Half height tiling flows around the walls. There’s a large window within the bathroom and a lovely vintage radiator.

There are two large double bedrooms which benefit from fitted wardrobes and a further double bedroom with a feature fireplace in the corner. The final bedroom is a roomy single, located to the rear aspect.

Located within the ceiling of the first-floor landing, you’ll discover a Positive Input Ventilation System, which works with filters to circulate, regulate and clean the air within the home.

The private rear garden is a blend of stone patio and lawned garden, framed by mature trees, shrubs and bedding plants.
