The wooden front door opens into an internal hallway, with wooden flooring, and stairs ascending to the first floor. A door provides beneficial access into the garage, with an up and over door, which houses the oil boiler for ease of access.

A wood and glass door opens into the central hallway which offers convenient access to the kitchen. There are a good number of wall and base units with a duck-egg blue coloured door complemented by a solid wooden work surface. In terms of fitted equipment, there is an eye-level oven-grill, a Belfast sink with a free-standing brass-look tap above, a four-burner gas hob with splash back tiling behind and an extractor fan above and there is plumbing and space for a dishwasher. Furthermore, the kitchen benefits from a pantry which offers excellent additional storage space. A window overlooking the side of the property allows for natural light.

A door opens into the stylish dining room, with a ceiling rose and coving, and a pair sliding doors which lead into a conservatory to the rear and a pair of French doors which provide access to the lounge: ideal for free flow of movement when entertaining and holding parties.

Constructed in wood, the conservatory, with a fully tiled floor and attractive exposed stone wall, is a beautifully light and bright space in which to relax and enjoy the garden views. A pair of French doors open onto a patio ideal for al fresco dining during the warm summer months.

Bathed in natural light courtesy of three windows, the lounge is an inviting space in which to spend time with family and friends whilst you enjoy garden views entering from every angle. A fireplace, with a beautiful cast iron insert, tile surround, slate hearth, wood mantle and mirror above forms an attractive focal point and the space is finished with a sumptuous carpet adding comfort as you move throughout.

Another wooden door opens to the utility room, with vinyl flooring, which offers a single bowl stainless steel sink, bench space and a wall cabinet. There is space and plumbing for a washing machine and space for a tumble dryer. A door provides external access, and a window allows for natural light. Adjacent is the conveniently located ground floor WC which is a superb asset as it negates the need to continually frequent the upstairs facilities. The suite comprises a close coupled toilet with a push button behind and wall hung hand wash basin with an attractive splash back tile. Natural light enters via a window to the rear.

The rear hallway extends further to incorporate a good-sized storage cupboard before a wood and glass door leads through towards the ground floor double bedroom benefiting from a walk-in cupboard and en-suite facilities.

Taking the stairs to the first floor, the landing opens out to three bedrooms and the family bathroom. The landing, with an exposed beam and a Velux window, is wonderfully spacious and orientated as such to create two distinct areas which could be utilised in many ways: a yoga space, office spaces or a place to read or play music.

The space is tiled around the bath, shower and toilet areas creating a crisp and fresh finish. The room would accommodate a separate shower if you so wished due to the generous room size. An electric light adds to the brightness.

Externally, the wrap around gardens ooze cottage style planting and are beautifully relaxing and tranquil, the ideal space in which to unwind whilst you observe the wildlife and birds and enjoy the lovely village scenery. The garden is both productive with its lovely greenhouse and stunning with various cottage style planted areas a wonderful oasis of a house and hidden garden.

About Elizabeth Humphreys Homes, Swarland

Casey Lodge Park Road, Swarland, NE65 9JD

Elizabeth Humphreys Homes is something that I have forever wanted to do, it's always been in my heart. We have many years of experience in the housing industry, from new builds, park homes and residential and commercial sales. This means that we have control over the quality of service that we provide and how we want to provide it. We are all about customer service and not penny-pinching, we want the complete freedom to serve our clients in the best way possible. When our clients are selling probably the most expensive item that they will ever own, it is about getting the best price, value for money, and customer service alongside providing the best knowledge and getting the job done right.

We are all about the best of quality, best of knowledge, and providing this in a family-friendly way because the team here at Elizabeth Humphreys Homes is like a family.

We advertise all our listed properties on Rightmove, Zoopla, Prime Location, and On the Market, alongside our website and social media platforms. Marketing is a vital tool when it comes to selling properties, and we are dedicated to reaching as many potential buyers as possible.

Local knowledge and Recommendations for your Buyers

The Elizabeth Humphreys Homes team are your local Estate Agents, we live and work within the areas in which we are selling properties. We share personal knowledge of locations and recommend businesses that we trust and use personally.

360degree Tours

This is a vital part of our Marketing strategy as it allows potential buyers to walk through your property without setting foot in it. This gives them a feel for the property before viewing it in person. Everyone's first viewing of a property is online, therefore tours and photos must be of high quality so that potential buyers do not dismiss your property before viewing it (you will have done this yourself).

Professional Photography, Floorplans, and Drone Imagery

Great photography is a crucial part of the sale process when it comes to selling a property. We take wonderful photos ourselves or you can choose to upgrade your package to use our professional photographer which provides fantastic images of the properties which we sell.

Our floorplans are high quality, which gives highly accurate plans and allows potential buyers to see the layout of the property and envision where their furniture would go.

We offer drone imagery as an additional photography option. This is a great way of showcasing your property and its surroundings. We are happy to show examples of what has been previously produced.

"5 stars doesn't say enough for how good Liz and Ian are. From a house sale which had everything go wrong from start to finish you couldn't ask for a more dedicated team to try get it over the line. The house was listed and looked amazing. The 360 photos I think really gather interest and show the best of your house which nobody else seemed to be doing. The real service you get though is the constant pushing and chasing to get things done outside of the normal 9-5. You won't get this from another estate agent and without a doubt If we'd used anyone else the house sale would have fallen through. We can't thank Liz enough for all of this, but she really is the best around here and we wouldn't use anyone else if we decided to sell again in the near future." Jack Wayman

"We sold two properties with Elizabeth and purchased our new home with her (all at the same time). This was very stressful for us, but Elizabeth was calm and answered any questions we had. She was amazing from start to finish, went above any beyond and managed to achieve what other estate agents had failed at. Even on weekends and evenings Elizabeth was at the end of the phone and working hard to complete the sales and purchase for us. Elizabeth is not a 9-5 estate agent, she is a 9keys in your hand estate agent. I 100% recommend her services." Mr Tate. Registered with The Property Ombudsman.
