A rare opportunity to purchase a stunning individually designed detached house of considerable stature and character, pleasantly situated in a quiet cul-de-sac in this highly regarded village location and having the benefit of a large and mature south facing garden site extending to approximately a quarter of an acre. Featuring impressively spacious and flexible accommodation over two floors, the property includes an elegant entrance hall with a sweeping return staircase to the first floor, a superb 28ft oval drawing room overlooking the gardens, 3 additional good sized reception rooms and well appointed breakfasting kitchen with a large gas powered Aga, together with a useful utility room and separate laundry. To the first floor there are four well proportioned bedrooms and a modern spacious family bathroom with a separate shower and a connecting door to the main bedroom. Externally there are lovely gardens to all sides, with main garden being particularly attractive and secluded with extensive lawns, mature plants and trees and having the benefit of a superb sunny southerly aspect and a generous paved terrace perfect for outside entertaining. In addition, there is a greenhouse and useful garden store together with a large detached garage for on-site parking. East Fields benefits from an enviable position perfectly placed for access to the historic centre of Whitburn Village, with local shops and restaurants, together with high performing primary and secondary schools and convenient access to nearby beaches and coastal walks. Whitburn is also well positioned for transport links to the Sunderland and Tyneside conurbations and for travel to the wider north east region. This substantial property is, in our opinion, one of the most distinctive and significant of its type in the Sunderland area and internal inspection is required to fully appreciate the size and character of the accommodation it provides. It comprises: entrance lobby, imposing entrance hall, drawing room, sitting room, dining room, study, kitchen/diner, cloakroom/wc, utility room, laundry room, 4 bedrooms, bathroom, gas CH (combi), mostly double glazing, carpets, double garage, superb gardens.
