Greenacre, Millfield Road, Whickham, Newcastle upon Tyne

Jan Mitchell Properties are thrilled to present this rare opportunity to acquire a one of the most sought after and characterful detached residences, on the ever desirable Millfield Road, set within a substantial plot of approximately one acre, offered with No Onward Chain.

This versatile home offers a wealth of possibilities, whether utilised as one impressive family residence, adapted to provide independent living for extended family members, or reconfigured to suit growing households. The generous plot also presents further potential for extension or the addition of leisure facilities, subject to the necessary permissions.

Occupying a central position within its grounds, the main house enjoys excellent privacy, surrounded by well maintained gardens. The outdoor space includes a large log cabin, a dedicated storage room for garden furniture, a lean-to tool store, and an additional boiler/storage room all benefitting from electricity supply.

The approach to the property is equally impressive, with a sweeping driveway offering ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles, in addition to a triple garage. Garden maintenance equipment, including two large lawnmowers, will also be included within the sale.

Ideally located on Millfield Road, the property is within easy walking distance of Whickham's Front Street, offering a range of shops, cafés, and amenities. The Metrocentre is just a short drive away, along with Newcastle city centre, the Quayside, and Newcastle Central Station. Newcastle International Airport is approximately 15 minutes away, while open countryside can be reached within around 30 minutes.

Internally, the ground floor provides extensive and flexible living accommodation, including five generous reception rooms, one currently utilised as a dining room and one as a music room, all enjoying views over the surrounding gardens. There is a guest WC, a ground floor bathroom with underfloor heating, a utility room, and a separate breakfast room. A conservatory to the rear offers a tranquil outlook across the garden.

At the heart of the home lies a spacious family kitchen, centrally positioned and easily accessible from all principal living areas. In addition, a second, smaller kitchen to the rear allows for independent living arrangements if required.

To the first floor, there are five well proportioned double bedrooms, one currently used as a study. The principal bedroom benefits from a large ensuite bathroom and dressing room, while a second family bathroom serves the remaining rooms. All bedrooms feature fitted wardrobes, and both bathrooms are equipped with underfloor heating and power showers.

The property further benefits from excellent storage throughout, along with an ADT alarm system for added security. There are two gas boilers (with remaining warranties of approximately three and six years, subject to annual servicing) and two electricity meters, supporting flexible living arrangements. High-speed Virgin Media broadband (Volt Gig1) is installed, along with TV services. The roof carries a 15-year guarantee from J. Ramsay Roofing.

Originally constructed circa 1955, the property was thoughtfully extended in the 1970s by a previous owner to provide independent accommodation. The current owners have enjoyed and adapted the home in a similar manner for nearly four decades.

The delightful wrap around gardens can be viewed and enjoyed from all principal rooms. They consist of expansive lawns, well maintained borders and patio areas providing the perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertaining.
