Description

A beautifully well-cared for and presented family home. Elizabeth Humpreys Homes are delighted to welcome to the market this 3 bedroomed semi-detached property located in the Northumberland village of Whittingham. The property, positioned in a quiet cul-de-sac, boasts low maintenance front, side and rear gardens, uPVC windows and doors, a recently replaced roof (within the last 3 years), a refurbished kitchen, a replaced bathroom, oil central heating, and all the other usual mains connections. This lovely home, nestled within the most tranquil environment, is a peaceful haven and your dream country home.

Whittingham is situated in a valley, or Vale, below its neighbouring village of Glanton, and sits on the river Aln. The village features a number of fine houses clustered around the river, including a Pele Tower dating from the 13th century but modernised in the 19th century. The village hosts a first school and a church, whilst the nearest shops are in Glanton and Powburn. All other local facilities are in nearby Rothbury and Alnwick, the latter of which is 7.5 miles away. The village has easy access to the A697 allowing for travel to Newcastle and Edinburgh.

The property is approached via a wrought iron gate before five steps leading to a low maintenance front garden offering gravelled spaces to either side of the front door, with storm canopy over, which opens into an entrance hallway. Two doors lead off, one to the lounge and one to the kitchen. This light and bright space is neutrally decorated allowing the easy addition of accent colour should you so wish. The radiator, with attractive cover, is a pleasant feature as is the wood effect vinyl flooring which extends into the kitchen creating a seamless transition between the different spaces.

The lounge is a welcoming room with a window to the front and one to the rear allowing a wealth of natural light to circulate. A feature fireplace, with an oak mantle and Indian stone hearth, houses a multi-fuel fire and forms an attractive focal point enticing you to sit before it during the cooler months. The space is finished with a sumptuous grey carpet adding comfort as you move throughout.

The kitchen, with a window overlooking the rear garden, offers a good number of wall and base units with a white wood effect door with brushed chrome handles complemented by a contrasting grey laminate work surface. In terms of fitted equipment, there is a four-place induction hob, an oven beneath a glass splash back and stainless-steel chimney style extractor fan, a single bowl stainless steel sink with a mixer tap over and space and plumbing for a washing machine. Opposite, there is a breakfast bar offering seating and additional bench space. The kitchen also benefits from an additional pantry cupboard and utility space to house the oil boiler and tumble dryer and space for a free-standing fridge-freezer. A window overlooks the front garden and allows plenty of natural light. A uPVC door provides external access to the rear garden.

Taking the stairs to the first floor, the landing, illuminated by natural light entering via a window to the rear, opens out to three bedrooms, the family bathroom and a large storage cupboard. Loft access is available. The bedrooms upstairs are all carpeted with sumptuous carpet.

The primary bedroom is a large double room with a window taking advantage of views to the front of the property over to the hills beyond. This restful and airy room offers built-in wardrobes.

Bedroom 2 is another light and bright double room capturing views to the front and presenting plenty of built-in storage.

Bedroom 3 is a single room overlooking the rear garden. This room offers beneficial storage and is currently utilised as an office. All the bedrooms are beautifully presented and allow the easy addition of accent colour should you so wish.

The family bathroom comprises a fully tiled double sized shower cubicle with a thermostatic waterfall showerhead and a separate showerhead within, a pedestal hand wash basin with a mixer tap and mosaic tiled splash back behind, a wall mounted mirror and a close coupled toilet with a push button. A chrome heated towel rail ensures added comfort. The space is finished with black vinyl floor and a window with privacy glass overlooks the rear of the property.

The side garden, entered via a gate, is mainly laid to lawn and is securely fenced to allow children and family pets to play safely. The garden captures lovely views of the Pele Tower before continuing round to the rear garden where there is a decked area ideal of al fresco dining with family and friends. There is a raised bed, currently containing pebbles, but offers space for planting flowers or growing vegetables if you so wished.

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.
