The Property
7 Middlebrook is an impressive and substantial stone-built property in a generous plot, nestled in the heart of one the most sought-after locations in the North East. The accommodation is arranged across three floors, with lovely large living spaces sweeping across the ground floor, and six bedrooms to the upper floors, along with a huge hobby room that could become an amazing suite. There is enormous flexibility and versatility to configure for individual requirements. High quality fixtures and fittings combine with sleek contemporary colour palettes and period touches to offer bright, airy and welcoming modern living.
A grand portico shelters the entrance to the vestibule with onward access to the central hall. The hall sets the tone for 7 Middlebrook with elegant décor and gorgeous tiling. The principal reception rooms radiate from the hall and the wide spindled staircase rises to the first floor. There is also access to a cloakroom and separate WC. The huge sitting room stretches from front elevation to rear, with a triple aspect that includes French doors to the patio and gardens beyond. A feature fireplace with ornate surround sits to one side and is complemented by decorative cornicing and a beautiful ceiling rose. Further reception space is provided by the dining room and family room; both rooms could be used for a variety of purposes. The dining room connects via French doors to the garden room. The garden room is bathed in natural light from full height glazing and three skylights. There is plenty of room for a comfortable seating area and a large table and chairs. Two sets of French doors open to the patio and rear gardens, creating indoor/outdoor living space.
The stunning kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a fine range of modern cabinetry and high quality discreet integrated appliances. The striking gloss finish is highlighted by subtle lighting. A central island has space for work and for casual dining. Adjoining the kitchen is the utility room with further work space, an additional sink, a second ground floor WC and access to the integral double garage.
There are five double bedrooms arranged across the first floor. The principal bedroom benefits from extensive fitted wardrobes and a lovely en-suite shower room. The fully tiled room features a walk-in shower along with twin sinks and a WC set in a vanity unit. A heated towel rail completes the suite. The vast guest bedroom is currently configured as a first floor cinema room with comfortable seating and a study corner, again demonstrating the flexibility on offer. A Juliet balcony overlooks the front garden and there is an en-suite shower room to one corner. The third bedroom also has an en-suite shower room, whilst the fourth and fifth bedrooms are served by the family bathroom.
Stairs continue to the second floor where there is sixth bedroom, another shower room and a vast hobby room of endless potential. This could be an extra bedroom, a play room, an office or even a quiet snug tucked away upstairs. Fitted storage in this room is complemented by useful eaves storage running to both front and rear. The whole second floor could also be developed as an incredible master suite incorporating all of the rooms into luxurious private quarters with bedroom, bathroom and relaxing living space.
Externally
The stone pillared gateway opens to a tarmacadam driveway with parking and turning space. The driveway leads to the integral double garage offering great practicality and convenience. There is a lawned garden to the front dotted with mature trees. The main gardens are to the rear and are mainly laid to lawn for ease of maintenance, with a mixture of established heading and fencing providing peace and privacy.
