The Property
The property presents a wonderful rare opportunity to be the first to live in this spacious contemporary home, thoughtfully designed and built for family life, yet nestled right in the heart an idyllic and peaceful village, surrounded by glorious Northumberland countryside.
The property offers a warm and inviting retreat, the stone and timber exterior blending with the traditional, rural setting and the stylish fixtures and fittings, and interior layout ensuring the property is well set for the rigours of modern life, such as home working and technology connections with internet points in every room. The house is flooded with natural light through a combination of large windows, electric opening skylights and high ceilings.
The reception rooms radiate off a generous entrance hall, with a modern bespoke staircase to the first floor. A versatile study, ideal for working from home, but also as a play room or snug, is located beside a sophisticated, light sitting room. The generous kitchen/dining room with bespoke, hand-made Shaker style units in a calming neutral colour palette, quartz work surfaces and Bosch integrated appliances centres around a vast island bench beneath a vaulted ceiling. It is an impressive space for entertaining, yet homely and cozy for baking and homework, and the abundance of windows, plus doors to the garden, bring light and nature in. The utility room has been designed with the same level of quality as the kitchen, with hand-made cabinetry to match and plumbed for all laundry facilities, and even the downstairs cloakroom/WC is beautifully appointed.
To the first floor, the elegant principal bedroom suite with vaulted ceiling, gorgeous views of the rolling fields to the rear of the house, luxurious dressing room and high end en-suite shower room with Rak ceramics and Grohe brassware, is a relaxing haven that is hard to leave. The guest bedroom is equally pleasing with vaulted ceiling and smart en-suite shower room, and two further double bedrooms are served by a superb family bathroom.
The attention to detail is clear throughout the property and emphasis has been placed on luxury, relaxation and bringing the breathtaking countryside outdoors inside. The property has been built to provide a lasting quality home.
Externally
The property is accessed via a private paved driveway, leading to an integral garage with a timber clad up and over door. The addition of an EV charging point and bicycle storage is very up-to-the-minute. Turfed and landscaped gardens to the front and rear mirror the lush greenery of the surrounding countryside and the smart rear patio is perfect for al fresco dining, relaxing and entertaining. A bin store to the bottom of the driveway maintains the natural and neat aesthetic of Upland View.
Agents Note
Upland View has a 10 year structural warranty with ICW specification.
