Washington Terrace, North Shields

Set along one of North Shields’ most distinguished and architecturally impressive terraces, this elegant four-storey period home offers exceptional space, character and presence in a truly enviable coastal setting. Washington Terrace is widely regarded as one of the area’s finest residential addresses, known for its striking late Victorian architecture. Behind its attractive frontage lies a home rich in original detail and thoughtful enhancements. High ceilings, decorative cornicing, fireplaces and large traditional windows flood the rooms with natural light while maintaining the proportions and grandeur expected of a property of this era. The entrance hallway immediately impresses with its tiled flooring and sweeping staircase, setting the tone for the accommodation that follows. On the ground floor level there are two beautiful reception rooms, each offering its own atmosphere, a refined front lounge centred around a feature fireplace, and a versatile second reception room, both full of character and generous proportions. This floor is complemented by a useful utility room and contemporary shower room for added practicality. The lower ground floor leads you into an impressive open-plan kitchen and dining space. Exposed brickwork and a range-style cooker add warmth and character, while the generous proportions comfortably accommodate a full dining suite. A living room with log burner creates a cosy retreat to complete the lower ground floor. Across the upper floors are four well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal suite occupies the top floor and provides a peaceful sanctuary with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and a beautifully appointed en-suite bathroom. Three further bedrooms on the level below offer flexibility for family living, guests or home working. Externally, the property benefits from a private rear garden, a sheltered space ideal for outdoor seating and entertaining. Positioned within easy reach of the coastline, Tynemouth Golf Club, Front Street’s cafes and restaurants, the Fish Quay, well-regarded schools and excellent transport links into Newcastle, this is a substantial period home offering space, character and lifestyle in equal measure.
