Description

Summary

Inviting offers between £170,000 & £180,000. This stunning three-bedroom semi-detached home on the sought-after Watergate Estate in Whickham has been fully modernised to an exceptional standard. The front features a large private gravelled driveway, while the rear boasts a generous, non-overlooked garden bordering peaceful allotments. This outdoor space is significantly enhanced by an additional leased plot for just £25 per year, providing an expansive feel rarely found in the area. Given the high-spec finish and prime location, early viewings are highly recommended to avoid disappointment.

Ground Floor

The property opens into an inviting hallway featuring real wood flooring and elegant part-glazed doors that lead to the front-facing living room and the expansive kitchen/diner. A stunning glazed staircase serves as a contemporary centerpiece leading to the first floor. In the living room, a centrally located electric fireplace provides a cosy focal point, while large windows bathe the space in natural light.

Internal double doors flow seamlessly into the impressive open-plan kitchen and dining area. This combined space features durable ceramic floor tiling and a modern high-gloss kitchen equipped with a range of wall and base units. Integrated appliances include a fridge/freezer, microwave, and extractor fan, with dedicated plumbing for a washing machine and space for a range cooker (available via separate negotiation).

French doors flanked by large windows invite plenty of light into the dining area and provide access to the rear garden. To the side, a practical lobby leads to a downstairs WC and a dedicated salon—fully equipped with professional fixtures and fittings—offering a versatile space with its own external entrance.

The main bedroom is enhanced by sleek mirrored wardrobes, maximising storage while maintaining a clean, clutter-free aesthetic.

Directly outside the French doors lies a paved seating area and an elevated lawn, which are both held within the property title.

Beyond the stone boundary wall, the outdoor space is significantly extended by a sizeable leased allotment plot, creating an expansive and tranquil environment that is not overlooked. This garden comes fully equipped for hobbyists or those who love to entertain, featuring two sheds with full electrical power and a large summer house complete with a log burner. Bordering the neighbouring allotments, the entire space offers a peaceful retreat with gated access.
