GOTO OFFER FOR SALE THIS THREE BEDROOM SEMI DETACHED PROPERTY IN MORPETH.
Description
Fabulous three bedroom, three bathroom semi-detached, stone-built, period property which has been modernised and improved by the current owners whilst still retaining some traditional character. A block paved driveway to the front along with a pretty garden with nice mature borders and a lawned area to the centre is enclosed by attractive wrought iron gates. A further gate off the driveway goes down the side of the property into a small courtyard, perfect for relaxing in the warmer months. There are UPVC windows and doors, gas central heating and all other usual mains connections. This property has recently been utilised as a holiday let but would equally make a great main or second home.
Amble, Northumberland's friendliest port, offers a wide range of amenities including a supermarket, shops, doctors, first, middle and high schools, health centre, pubs and restaurants. 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.
The front door leads into a lovely internal hallway which is stylish, light and extremely inviting. Gorgeous tiling to the floor (which continues into the kitchen) is very pleasing on the eye and several period features, namely the good height of ceiling, dado rail and Victorian style radiator add further character to this space. Stairs lead to the first floor and there is a handy cupboard below, ideal for additional storage.
Moving down the hallway an opening takes you into a fantastic refitted kitchen offering a range of white wall and base units with a pretty shaker style door. A woodblock effect work surface is the perfect contrast and is further enhanced by bench lighting. There is an under bench electric oven, a four-burner gas hob with a black brick style splashback behind and a chimney style extractor fan above, a fully integrated fridge freezer, an integrated washing machine and a fully integrated slimline dishwasher. Further storage is available by way of drawers and a corner cupboard and there is also a bowl and a half stainless steel sink. A window overlooks the courtyard area and there is a door leading out offering scope for al fresco dining, weather permitting! Further modern touches are a chrome heated towel tail and chrome switches and sockets. The space opens up through to the other end of the room where there is another built-in unit and further bench space with lights above. The gas boiler is also located here.
Further down the hallway is the living room which is a superb space with a large, almost floor to ceiling original bay window to the front. This also boasts an inviting window seat offering an enchanting space in which to relax and look out over the front garden. The room is bursting with period features namely a picture rail, pretty coving, a stunning ceiling rose and splendid stripped wood floorboards. There is also a lovely gas feature fireplace with a tiled back and hearth together with a wood surround. Some original shelving to one side of this fireplace makes an ideal little library. A particularly high ceiling adds a further feeling of space to this beautiful room and both wall and ceiling lights are available with brushed chrome switches and sockets finishing the space off perfectly.
A second reception room is currently used as a dining room and is another magnificent space brimming with character. There is more of the stripped wood floorboards, large coving, a ceiling rose and a delf rack around the top of the walls. There is another elegant gas feature fireplace, this one boasting a cast iron insert, a tiled hearth and a brick surround. Two big windows to the rear circulate a wealth of natural light into this extremely tastefully decorated space.
Moving up to the first floor a window on the landing allows natural light to stream into the space and there is also a cupboard for storage.
The master suite is an absolute delight with a huge height of ceiling along with stylish coving. It benefits from a large window to the front which ensures it is lovely and light and a built-in wardrobe offers great storage space. The ensuite is a new addition to this room and offers a quadrant shower cubicle with wet walling within, a Victorian-style high-level cistern WC, a wall hung hand basin and a chrome heated towel rail. In addition, there is an electric mirror and a low maintenance ceiling with spotlights.
Bedroom two, a further double, is equally as stunning with its fantastic height of ceiling and more of the original coving. There is also a small loft hatch. This room’s recent refurbishment has included the addition of an ensuite which matches that of the master suite which will no doubt make it difficult to choose between the two rooms!
Bedroom three is a large single with a window to the side. It is beautifully presented with a charming shaped ceiling and also has a small loft access.
The main bathroom continues with the period theme with its large white bath with Victorian style chrome taps, a close coupled WC and a pedestal wash hand basin both in a Heritage style. In addition, there is a corner shower cubicle with wet walling within and a chrome heated towel rail. Two of the walls have been tiled and there is also a delightful shaped ceiling and a window to the rear for natural light.
The front garden is a lovely mature garden with block paved driveway behind two metal gates. An enclosed side yard area with access to the cellar beneath the house.

Energy Performance Certificate (EPCs)
An EPC is broadly like the labels provided with domestic appliances such as refrigerators and washing machines. Its purpose is to record how energy efficient a property is as a building. The certificate will provide a rating of the energy efficiency and carbon emissions of a building from A to G, where A is very efficient, and G is inefficient. The data required to allow the calculation of an EPC includes the age and construction of the building, its insulation and heating method. EPCs are produced using standard methods with standard assumptions about energy usage so that the energy efficiency of one building can easily be compared with another building of the same type. The Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) requires that all buildings have an EPC when they are marketed for sale or for let, or when houses are newly built. EPCs are valid for 10 years, or until a newer EPC is prepared. During this period the EPC may be made available to buyers or new tenants.
