1 bedroom apartment for sale

An appealing town centre property. We are proud to welcome to the market this fabulous stone-built one bedroom first-floor apartment located in the centre of Amble. The property, which retains many period features, benefits from uPVC windows and doors, gas central heating and all the other usual mains connections. This apartment offers light and bright living a few minutes walk from the coast and would be ideal as either a main home or second home.

Amble, Northumberland's friendliest port, offers a wide range of amenities including a supermarket, shops, doctors, Primary schools and a High school, health centre, pubs and restaurants including vibrant seafood eateries. There is still a working harbour, a marina and a popular Sunday market. Many of the things to do in Amble are based on the very thing that almost completely surrounds it - water. Watersports, sailing, canoeing, kayaking and fishing are all extremely popular. Amble is home to the UK’s only puffin festival, inspired by the colourful 36,000-bird colony nesting on Coquet Island, an RSPB seabird sanctuary a mile off the coast. Warkworth and Alnwick are a short drive away. Amble has a regular bus service to Alnwick, Ashington, Blyth and Newcastle, and it is approximately 4.5 miles to the mainline rail station at Alnmouth.

Entry is via the front door into a light and bright internal porch area with grey wood-effect flooring and a good height of ceiling adding to the sense of space offered. A substantial original wood and glass door opens to the main hallway, which is furnished with the same flooring creating a seamless transition between the two areas. Stairs lead to the first floor and there is a good-sized cupboard beneath offering excellent storage potential. There is a rear porch with a uPVC door providing access into a shared yard at the rear of the property.

Taking the carpeted stairs to the first floor, the half landing splits and two more steps lead to the bathroom and a laundry area which houses the Vaillant gas boiler for ease of access and offers plumbing and space for a washing machine. Natural light enters via a window to the side of the property.

The bathroom, with vinyl flooring, is light and bright. The suite comprises an attractive grey high-gloss vanity unit with a sink on top with a waterfall tap and pretty mosaic splashback tiling behind, a chrome heated towel rail, a white toilet with a push button, and a white bath with a glass shower screen with matching mosaic tiles to those behind the vanity unit. There is an electric shower over the bath.

The main landing is spacious with loft access available. Two doors lead from here, with the first opening to the kitchen-dining area, where there are plenty of wall and base units with a solid wood door complemented by a dark work surface, an electric under bench oven, a wine rack, a four-burner ceramic hob with a glass splashback behind and glass display cabinets above, an integrated underbench fridge and a single bowl stainless steel sink. In addition, there is space to accommodate further free-standing appliances. The high ceilings continue here, emphasising the sense of space, and a large window with a deep sill allows a tremendous amount of natural light to enter. The dining area is a pleasant space to sit and dine and offers an original built-in cupboard with shelving. This area is carpeted and the kitchen is finished with vinyl flooring.

The lounge is entered from the kitchen-dining room and is furnished with wood-effect vinyl flooring and large skirting boards. The original coving framing the high ceiling is a wonderful feature and a large window captures views to the front of the property, making a welcoming and comfortable room.

The bedroom is a good-sized double room overlooking the front. The woodwork surrounding the window is original and forms an attractive focal point. This large room is a restful and relaxing space. A glorious spacious apartment which is ideally located close to the coastline and is a property not to be missed.
