Ground Floor

Entrance Hall

The property is entered through a welcoming entrance hall which immediately establishes the quality and character found throughout the home. With attractive flooring, neutral yet stylish décor and useful access to the principal rooms, the hall provides a practical central hub from which the accommodation flows. The single-storey layout will particularly appeal to families seeking versatile living without stairs, as well as buyers looking to future-proof their next home.

Master Bedroom – approximately 13'6" x 13'6"

A particularly generous principal bedroom, enjoying excellent proportions and an attractive outlook across the surrounding grounds and countryside. There is ample room for a substantial double bed together with freestanding furniture, while the overall presentation creates a calm and comfortable retreat. The room benefits from natural light and the rural views which are such a defining feature of Fieldside.

Bedroom Two – approximately 13' x 10'6"

Another excellent double bedroom, providing plenty of space for a large bed, bedside furniture and additional storage. The room is well presented and benefits from a pleasant outlook, making it equally suitable as a guest bedroom, children's room or occasional home-working space. The generous proportions offer considerably more flexibility than many properties of this type.

Cloakroom/WC

Conveniently positioned close to the bedrooms and principal living accommodation, the separate WC provides useful facilities for both residents and guests.

Open-plan Kitchen and Dining room – approximately 21' x 28'

Without doubt one of the outstanding spaces within the property, this impressive L-shaped room combines a beautifully appointed kitchen with a substantial dining and entertaining area. The bespoke-style cabinetry is complemented by timber work surfaces, display shelving and a large central island with breakfast bar seating, creating a sociable focal point for the room. A range-style cooker sits beneath a characterful exposed brick backdrop, while the Belfast-style sink and extensive preparation surfaces provide both practicality and visual appeal. The substantial dining area offers space for a large table, making this an ideal setting for family gatherings and entertaining. Exposed brickwork and timber beams introduce warmth and character, while large, glazed openings and bi-fold doors draw in natural light and provide a wonderful connection with the garden. The room also enjoys particularly beautiful views across the open countryside, making it a space that can be enjoyed...

Utility room – approximately 9' x 3'

A useful utility area provides valuable additional space away from the main kitchen, ideal for laundry appliances, household storage and everyday practical tasks. Its position close to the principal living areas ensures that the kitchen can remain a stylish and uncluttered focal point.

Bathroom – approximately 12'6" x 9'6"

The spacious family bathroom is considerably larger than might be expected in a bungalow of this style and includes a freestanding bath, separate shower enclosure, WC and wash hand basin. The room is finished in a contemporary style and provides a comfortable, well-appointed space for both everyday use and guests.

Bedroom Three – approximately 12'6" x 9'

A further well-sized bedroom, comfortably accommodating a double bed and additional bedroom furniture. The room benefits from natural light and the property's attractive setting, while its position within the bungalow makes it particularly versatile for family members, guests or those requiring a dedicated bedroom away from the principal suite.

Lounge – approximately 15' x 13'6"

The lounge provides a more intimate alternative to the sociable open-plan kitchen/dining area and is a particularly atmospheric room. A striking exposed brick chimney breast provides the backdrop for a wood-burning stove, creating an inviting focal point and a wonderfully cosy ambience during the cooler months. Glazed doors/openings provide views towards the garden and reinforce the property's strong relationship with its surroundings. The room offers ample space for generous sofas and lounge furniture and is equally well suited to quiet evenings or entertaining.

Snug/seating area

Beyond the principal living spaces is a further seating area which provides an excellent additional zone for relaxing, reading or simply enjoying the spectacular rural outlook. Its position beside the garden-facing glazing makes this a particularly attractive spot from which to appreciate the changing seasons and uninterrupted countryside beyond.

Exterior

Front Garden

Fieldside occupies an attractive position on Great North Road, with the property approached via its own parking area and surrounded by established planting. The setting is particularly appealing, with open fields and countryside forming a striking backdrop and giving the property a wonderfully rural character despite its convenient position.

The rear garden is a major feature of the property, combining a beautifully maintained lawn with paved terraces, established borders, hedging and mature planting. The elevated entertaining areas have been designed to make the most of the outstanding countryside views, providing numerous places to sit, dine and relax. A superb dedicated BBQ terrace incorporates a built-in outdoor fireplace/BBQ and generous seating, creating an exceptional setting for summer entertaining.

Outbuildings and Entertainment

A covered hot tub area provides a further private space for relaxation, while the garden also benefits from a small garden office, ideally suited to those working from home and offering an enviable view across the surrounding landscape. The combination of lawn, patio, mature planting and extensive outdoor seating creates a garden which can be enjoyed for both quiet relaxation and larger gatherings.
