5 The Ridge, Saltburn-by-the-sea

5 The Ridge comprises a fantastic 1960s family home which has been extended and modernised to an exacting standard by the current owners. 

The property is accessed via a welcoming entrance hall, complemented by a handcrafted oak staircase with built-in storage and customised black railings. 

From here there is access to the downstairs shower room, kitchen, and sitting room.

The kitchen has been fitted with a modern range of sapphire blue units and quartz worktops, whilst incorporating a range of appliances including a fridge freezer, oven, grill, hob, bin storage, dishwasher, hot water tap, and a larder cupboard. The central island also offers a breakfast bar, and there is ample space for a dining table.

A cylinder log-burning stove set on a copper surround creates a striking focal point. The room is filled with natural light courtesy of the sliding French doors, which make it a perfect indoor–outdoor living space during the summer months.

Through to the sitting room there is another log-burning stove set within a copper surround. The conservatory is a wonderful additional space featuring marble flooring and overlooking the beautifully landscaped garden, which can also be accessed via a door.

The utility room has been fitted with shaker-style units finished in cashmere matt, together with marble-effect worktops, a stainless steel sink, and plumbing for a washing machine and dryer. It is finished with asymmetric tiles, and there is a door leading through to the garage and rear garden. The space has been utilised as a fantastic home office but also lends itself well to a variety of other uses.

To the first floor there are four bedrooms, three of which are generous doubles. The master bedroom is fitted with an en-suite shower room and sliding doors, together with large fitted wardrobes. The second bedroom has been converted into a dressing room with fitted wardrobes, while the remaining two bedrooms are served by the family bathroom, which is equipped with a jacuzzi bath and a walk-in rainfall shower.

Externally, the property is complemented by a beautifully maintained landscaped garden, featuring Spanish-effect paving, a range of flower beds, mature shrubs and established trees which create a private setting. The rear garden enjoys a wonderful sun trap with an inviting seating area, perfect for al fresco dining. To the front of the property there is a garage and a driveway providing off-road parking for two vehicles.
