House For Sale £195,000
RE/MAX Northumberland are delighted to welcome to the market this fabulous 3 bedroom property located in the Northumberland town of Alnwick. This unique family home benefits from off-street parking for up to three cars, a paved front path, a rear garden with large storage facility, an outside kitchen-barbecue area, a large solar panel array and batteries, uPVC windows and composite doors. A new roof was added in 2022 and new flooring was fitted throughout recently. The home is heated by gas central heating and benefit from all the other usual mains connections.
Alnwick, with its cobbled streets and beautiful old buildings, has recently had the honour of being voted one of the best places to live in the UK. Alnwick is a town brimming with history and culture, from the tranquillity of Barter Books to the splendour of the Alnwick Castle and gardens. The town benefits from excellent transport links with frequent buses between Berwick, Morpeth and Newcastle and is a short drive to Alnmouth train station and, as it is situated just moments from the A1, it is perfect for those needing to commute. There is an excellent selection of local food retailers, delis, bakeries and butchers as well as larger chain supermarkets. The town centre also has excellent amenities including several banks, GP surgeries, dental practices and a fabulous leisure centre to name but a few.
Entry is via the front door into an internal porch with a semi-vaulted ceiling. Attractive terracotta quarry tiles furnish the floor. There is a uPVC door leading from either side of the porch and the views captured are of the countryside surrounding the town, in addition to a snapshot of Alnwick Castle. A composite door opens into the main hallway with stairs leading to the first floor and various doors leading off.
The first main door leads to the light and bright lounge courtesy of a window to the front and French doors to the rear. The inglenook fireplace, with an Indian slate surround, houses a wood burner which forms an exquisite focal point. Luxury vinyl flooring finishes the space perfectly. Garden views are drawn inside as the French doors open directly onto a paved area, perfect for the alfresco dining experience or relaxing with a glass of wine or cup of coffee during the warm summer months.
The kitchen diner, fully tiled with quarry tiles matching those of the entrance hallway, offers a good number of wall and base units including plenty of pull outs in a light-coloured shaker-style door. The work surface with matching upstand works in harmony creating an attractive look. There is space for a full-sized dishwasher and space for a cooker. A bowl-and-a-half stainless steel sink sits beneath a window overlooking the rear garden. Ceiling spotlights add to the brightness. In addition, there is a solid fuel Rayburn Nouvelle cooker with an oven facility and hot plates. The work surface adjacent to the cooker incorporates an element to allow hot dishes to be placed directly onto the surface; a superb asset to this kitchen.
A composite door opens from the kitchen into a superb utility space: an L-shaped room with attractive industrial-style lighting, quarry floor tiles and a semi-vaulted ceiling with three Velux windows allowing for natural light. This room provides access via uPVC doors both to the front of the property and into the rear garden. A beech block-effect work surface sits on top of base units with shaker-style doors matching those in the kitchen. There is space for an American style fridge-freezer in addition to further kitchen furniture. The eight 2.4kw batteries housed in this room are connected to a Luxpower AC-coupled squirrel pod inverter, producing a total of 19.2kw from the 8 batteries, all generated by the 2.97kw solar panel array. French doors open to the rear garden. Leading off the utility room is a wooden-framed structure which is used as a laundry room, with plumbing and space for a washing machine, a tumble dryer, and a chest freezer, and equipped with a stainless-steel sink and plenty of bench and cupboard space. A uPVC window to the rear provides natural light.
The ground floor shower room, fully tiled to the floor and with wet walling to the walls, is spacious and overlooks the front of the property. The suite comprises a white bath and a screen with a large shower over with a variety of jets to enhance your shower experience, white high gloss units incorporating a sink and a waterfall tap and storage beneath, a concealed cistern toilet with a push button, an extractor fan and an electric mirrored cabinet.
Taking the newly carpeted stairs to the first floor, the L-shaped landing, with loft access above and a window allowing for natural light giving the opportunity to enjoy the rear garden views, opens out to three bedrooms.
The primary bedroom is a spacious double extending the width of the property with a window to the front and a window to the rear. This room offers a grey-wash laminate-type flooring.
Bedroom 2 is a double room with a fitted wardrobe and a window overlooking the front of the property.
Bedroom 3 also houses a double bed. This room overlooks the rear garden.
Externally, the rear garden is a superb outside space arranged on different levels. There is a range of seating areas and an outside kitchen/barbecue space in addition to lawned, paved and gravelled areas with raised beds. The large storage facility is a superb asset as it allows the tidy storage of all those garden accessories. The entire space is securely fenced to allow children and family pets to play safely.
