Elwick Road, Hartlepool, TS26 0

Rare to the market, a stunning 6 Bedroom Detached family home nestled within the highly coveted location of Elwick Road, West Park. Formerly part of the grand Meadowcroft Estate, the former stables and chauffer quarters date back to 1895, combining to create an incredible and unique luxury home, rich in character and historical charm. On arrival you’re initially welcomed by a long private driveway which sweeps down to an impressive, gated cobbled courtyard revealing this beautiful hidden gem beyond the mature tree lined perimeter. The façade is a delightful blend of cream render and brickwork that tells the story of the special heritage of this home. In addition to the main entrance, there’s also a side door leading into a secondary hallway. There's a detached garage to the rear which is accessible from Elwick Road.

As you enter the home, via the main door, you’re welcomed into a spacious reception hallway with high ceiling and a Victorian inspired Amtico flooring underfoot, providing a real sense of grandeur when greeting guests, befitting of property of this calibre. A white spindle return staircase sweeps up to the first floor ahead, with curved wall and polished wood handrail. Understairs you’ll find a relaxing snug area. The hallway benefits from a guest washroom to the left.

Off the hallway to the right, a glazed doorway guides you though into a full aspect dining room with a large window to the front aspect, full height window to the rear, pale soft carpet and a feature ornate cast iron fireplace with attractive tiled hearth, lovely stained-glass window to side, creating an ideal space to dine with guests.

Opposite the dining room, to the left of the hallway, you’ll discover a generously proportioned kitchen & breakfast room, which forms the heart of this home. The kitchen presents a multitude of fitted units finished in a white Shaker style with white quartz worktops and Amtico flooring. The kitchen enjoys a large central feature island with built in breakfast bar, perfect for early morning family breakfast or a latte and a chat with friends. An array of appliances compliment the kitchen, inclusive of a range style cooker, wine cooler, dishwasher, two integrated fridge freezers and a Belfast sink with mixer tap. French doors lead out into the private rear garden from the kitchen, ideal for alfresco dining during the summer months. Within the kitchen you’ll find a utility & laundry room.

An opening to the far side of the kitchen connects through to a delightful family room down some brief steps, with a soft pale carpet, large bay window and a feature gas fireplace with bespoke built in shelving within the alcoves to either side. A doorway leads out for the family snug to a secondary staircase, along with access to a rear door into the garden.

Adjacent to the family snug, off the kitchen, there’s a second reception hallway, with pale grey floor tiles and country style vertical panelling, which links through to a large family lounge, bedroom, office / study and a washroom. The family lounge is a stunning space with wooden flooring, ceiling recessed spotlights and two sets of French doors opening out into the cobbled courtyard beyond, flooding the space with beautiful natural light. An incredible cast iron staircase creates a lovely visual feature within the lounge, flowing up to a large bedroom suite. The bedroom celebrates the vaulted roof line and exposed beams with Velux windows to either side, enjoying an indulgent walk-in dressing room and en-suite shower room.

The first-floor accommodation can be accessed via either the main staircase from the reception hallway, or the secondary staircase off the snug. A long landing flows through the first floor like a spine, accessing 5 large double bedrooms, family bathroom and a shower room. Bedroom 2, adjacent to the main staircase, is complimented by an ensuite bathroom. The family bathroom is fitted with a delightful roll top slipper bath with floor mounted taps.

The rear garden, as with the front courtyard, is extremely private with a landscaped blend of lawn, stone patio and a fishpond to the far right. The garden is an ideal space to enjoy some quality family time, unwind or entertain guests.
