Description
Nestled within an exclusive and peaceful woodland setting, 1 Norton House forms part of the original Manor House built in 1871, now sympathetically converted to provide a truly exceptional semi-detached residence with style, substance and heritage. This striking five-bedroom home perfectly combines period architecture with modern comfort, resulting in a property that feels timeless yet entirely suited to contemporary family living.
Approached via a private drive shared with only a handful of neighbouring homes, the property immediately exudes grandeur and seclusion. Behind the mature trees and hedgerows lies a home of significant character — featuring soaring ceilings, ornate ceiling roses, decorative cornicing, and graciously proportioned rooms that echo the building’s Victorian origins. The sense of space and light throughout is exceptional, with large sash and bay windows drawing in natural light and framing garden views.
Despite its tranquil and leafy position, the property remains ideally placed for convenience. Within easy reach are highly regarded local schools such as Stranton Primary School, Manor Community Academy, and Hartlepool Sixth Form College. Medical facilities, including The University Hospital of Hartlepool, nearby GP surgeries, and dental practices, provide comprehensive healthcare. Day-to-day shopping needs are catered for by several supermarkets, while the Middleton Grange Shopping Centre and the Marina Retail Park offer a wide variety of shops, cafés, and restaurants. Excellent public transport links and quick road access make commuting or visiting the coast effortless.
