On entering the vestibule, the terracotta mosaic tiling gives a flavour of the authentic characteristics to be found within this historic home and the dark hues of the panelling to the ceiling is repeated in the reception hall. A wall of windows including a row of gold-toned panes ensure a light-filled hallway where the orginal ornate staircase rises to the first-floor galleried landing. Reception areas comprise a stately drawing room with two bay window alcoves and an impressive Inglenook orginal fireplace within a recess featuring carved wood panelling and bench seating to either side. The property also benefits from a spacious sitting room offering a rustic fireplace with stone surround. The kitchen by contrast is fitted with modern wall and base level, wood-fronted cabinetry, with display shelving and an external door to the garden, whilst ancillary space is provided by a utility room which also offers a route out to a courtyard.
On the first floor, the spacious, light-filled landing gives access to four bedrooms which feature an eclectic mix of decorative fireplaces, as well as a family bathroom with free-standing, roll-top tub and shower cubicle. There are two narrow recesses, one which offers a library space and the other a stone walkway which traces the span of the multi-light windows with an outlook over the river.
The setting of this property affords a glorious outlook with the soothing sound of moving water as the river flows by as well as the convenience of being situated in the centre of the desirable market Town, Morpeth. Stone pillars set within a low stone wall mark the entrance onto the driveway which leads to the
property and beyond to a detached double garage and further parking. A border filled with mature shrubs and perennial plants adjoins the house with golden euonymus bushes to either side of the entrance doorway, where stone steps rise to the half-glazed portal. The rear garden offers an area of lawn framed by flower beds and specimen trees, with a greenhouse for the green-fingered positioned in the corner just outside the kitchen door.
Historic Morpeth offers a good selection of shops, restaurants & bars, along with a bustling market square and scenic walks can be enjoyed along the banks of the River Wansbeck. The mainline station provides a convenient commute, whether travelling locally or nationally with direct links to cities which include London, Edinburgh and Leeds and for those wishing to travel further afield, Newcastle International Airport is also within easy reach. The A1 is less than two miles distant providing access northwards to Alnwick and Berwick and to Newcastle in a southerly direction, with the A197, Northern Bypass, offering an easy route to the stunning Northumberland coastline. Outstanding rated schooling in Morpeth includes Abbeyfield First School and The King Edward VI Academy.
