Property Details:

Ideally situated in this popular and central location, is this extended and refurbished three bedroom property, offering a larger than average floorpan.

Approaching the property, there is a pretty garden, mostly laid to lawn, with a driveway leading up to the single garage.

Entering into the internal porch and then through into the hallway, you find stairs to the first floor with a large cupboard and cloaks store below. A useful W.C is a great addition to the ground floor and is fitted with a vanity sink and W.C, along with a tiled floor and low maintenance ceiling.

The first room you arrive at is the lounge, which benefits from a dual aspect with stunning outlooks to both front and rear. There is a feature fireplace housing a gas fire providing a focal point, and French doors lead out to the fabulous conservatory to the rear.

The UPVC conservatory is an additional, large living space with quality solid wood flooring and French doors opening up the room into the private rear garden.

Also located off the hallway is the formal dining room, which could alternatively be utilized as a hobby room/home office or ground floor bedroom, according to the new owners needs. From this spacious and bright room you can enjoy a garden outlook.

The kitchen/diner in the home has been extended with the modern family in mind. Fitted with a range of wall and base units and finished with a high gloss, cream door and complimentary work surfaces, this is a great cooks kitchen. High quality finishes and appliances include plate racks, a John Lewis range style oven with five burner gas hob and ovens, a Smeg chimney extractor above and Bosch integrated dishwasher. There is also space for a fridge/freezer and an area off the kitchen where there is additional space and plumbing for a washing machine. Access to the side of the property can be gained from here.

The stairwell in the property has a tall window, filling the area with natural light and allowing views over the golf course behind.

Offering a sunny dual aspect, the master bedroom has views over the whole of Alnwick and beyond towards the sea, as well as over the garden and landscaped outlook to the rear. This room benefits from a dressing area, which is a fabulous addition.

Bedrooms two, also at the rear, is a further double room with a bank of built in wardrobes, and bedroom three is situated at the front of the home and is also a double room.

The family bathroom is a contemporary space, with neutral tiling and low maintenance ceiling. A vanity sink sits upon built in units and there is also a concealed cistern W.C, bath with shower taps and separate quadrant shower cubicle. An airing cupboard provides practical storage and also houses the Worcester boiler.

The solar panels on this property are on the high feed in system and so made circa £1500 September 15-September 16.

Externally, to the rear, are paved patios for seating leading to a tiered garden with lawn and flowering borders. An archway at the top takes you to a further graveled area where you will find a garden shed and summer house. This secure and private garden also has gate access out onto the golf course behind.

This property must be viewed internally to be appreciated, and we would recommend that you do this at your earliest convenience.
