YOPA are proud to welcome onto the market this fabulous 3 bedroom semi-detached property occupying a good size plot with generous gardens to the front and rear.  To the front is a pleasant stone wall together with a fence to one side and a hedge to the other enclosing a sizeable area of lawn with some attractive borders.  There is also a good size driveway, providing space for up to three vehicles, which leads to a single garage that has been partially converted to create a utility room and ground floor cloaks to the rear.  The front section remains empty, offering scope for storage with access via an up and over door. There are UPVC windows and doors, an electric central heating system, an immersion heater for the hot water and all other usual mains connections.  

The bustling harbour village of Seahouses is a colourful and vibrant community with fantastic local amenities such as the wonderful Hub which, as well as being a music/theatre/arts centre, has also been home to a state of the art cinema since 2013. With fresh seafood brought in every day and a fabulous selection of restaurants and pubs, Seahouses is an ideal place for any foodie. Only a few miles north is the stunning village of Bamburgh with its wide expanse of sandy beaches and imposing castle, it is the perfect place for a good walk.

Entry to this delightful family home is via the front door which leads into an internal porch with a stylish yet practical tiled floor and windows all around making it warm and welcoming. 

A wood and glass door takes you into the main hallway which gives an indication of the tasteful decoration afforded to this home and a window at the top of the stairs allows natural light to flow onto the landing as well as the hallway below. 

A door leads into a fantastic dual aspect lounge/diner with a square box bay window to the front overlooking the pretty garden as well as several nice stone properties opposite and a full glass door to the rear leads into the garden.  An electric wood burner set within a fireplace is an attractive focal point to the space and ideal for the colder months.  Brushed chrome switches are a stylish modern touch and complete this tastefully decorated space. 

A door leads into a good size kitchen which offers a range of wall and base units with solid wood doors together with plenty of bench space.  There is an under bench electric oven, a four-burner ceramic hob with a built-in extractor fan above, a fully integrated full-size dishwasher, and space for a freestanding fridge freezer.  In addition, there is a single bowl stainless steel sink and a pantry, great for extra storage.  A large window overlooks the private rear garden affording lovely views as well as allowing natural light to flood the space.  More of the brushed chrome switches and sockets together with splashback tiling in tones of grey finish the room off perfectly. 

At the back of the kitchen there is a section that leads around to a UPVC door giving access to the rear garden.  A bi-folding door leads into the converted area at the back of the garage which has a window to the side ensuring it is nice and bright.  Within this space is a utility room with a cupboard, bench space, plumbing and space for a washing machine and space for a tumble dryer.
