Description
RE/MAX Northumberland is proud to welcome onto the market 'The Gatehouse', a wonderful three-bedroom detached family home which is positioned within a quiet residential area of Alnwick. This lovely property is within walking distance of the town centre and its many amenities as well as benefiting from excellent transport links. There is a nice section of garden to the front of the property which is enclosed by wrought iron railings with a section of garden running up the side of the property to a gate that opens into further garden space at the rear. The latter has been landscaped by the current owners and offers an inviting outdoor space in which to enjoy the fresh air. Driveway parking is also available for up to two vehicles. The property has uPVC windows, composite doors, gas central heating, and all other usual mains connections and also benefits from time remaining on the builder's guarantee.

The historic town of 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.

Steps lead up to the front door which opens into an internal hallway that showcases stylish Karndean flooring which runs throughout the majority of the ground floor. Stairs lead to the first floor and there is a good size cupboard below, ideal for storage. Various doors lead off the hallway, the first one taking you into a cloakroom which is fitted with a close coupled WC with push button and a corner hand basin with splashback and pedestal. A window to the front allows for natural light.

The next door opens into a good size lounge boasting a large bay window to the front which on a clear day offers delightful views towards the coast. The space is beautifully decorated with a charming feature wallpaper which gives the room a particularly restful vibe.

A wood and glass door at the end of the hallway leads into a spacious kitchen/dining/family space which has been impressively extended by the current owners with the addition of a gorgeous conservatory to the rear which gives the room an almost 'L' shape. There is ample space to place a dining table and chairs at one end and there is also a little breakfast bar area within the kitchen section which offers a further area to sit and catch up with family. The kitchen area is fitted with a range of wall and base units with a white shaker-style door. There is an under-bench electric oven, a four-burner gas hob with a splashback behind and a chimney style extractor fan above, a fully integrated fridge freezer, a fully integrated full-size dishwasher, and plumbing and space for a washing machine. In addition, there is a bowl and a half stainless steel sink and the gas boiler is housed in one corner. A window overlooks the pretty rear garden and also allows natural light to flow into the space and ceiling spotlights add to the brightness of the room. Ample bench space is also available making this an excellent cook's kitchen.

French doors open into the conservatory which has a fully tiled floor and windows all around making the space warm, bright, and welcoming. Impressive views can be enjoyed over the beautiful garden making this an inviting space in which to spend time.

Moving up to the first floor the good size landing is lovely and light courtesy of a perfectly positioned window and there is access to the loft from here. Two good size cupboards are also available, perfect for additional storage.

The family bathroom is located at the top of the stairs and is fitted with a white bath complete with a shower over, a close coupled WC with a push button, a pedestal wash hand basin, and a white heated towel rail. The space has a stylish, modern finish with full tiling around the bath and shower area and lovely pebble effect Karndean flooring.

The master suite is nice and light with a pleasant aspect across Alnwick. It benefits from built-in wardrobes complete with top lockers finished with an attractive solid wood door which brings a charming cottage feel to the room.

The ensuite offers a double-size shower cubicle entered via a sliding door, a pedestal wash hand basin, a close coupled WC with a push button, and a white heated towel rail. More of the pebble effect Karndean flooring along with ceiling spotlights finishes the space off perfectly.

Bedroom two is another good size double with a window to the rear giving fabulous views over the rear garden and there is a good distance between this property and its neighbour. Bedroom three is a large single with a window to the front. It could perhaps be a home/office, hobby room or playroom if desired.

Externally this well-presented family home offers a splendid landscaped garden to the rear which exudes an almost cottage feel. There are gravelled steps leading up to a pleasant sitting area along with a lawn section running up. A further sitting area at the back allows you to catch the last of the sun's rays towards the end of the day and there are gaps down both sides of the property. The rear section is all secure making it ideal for children and family pets to enjoy.
