Elizabeth Humphreys Homes are proud to welcome to the market this fabulous 3 bedroomed semi-detached property located in the Northumberland town of Alnwick. This family-friendly home, currently beautiful holiday accommodation, features driveway parking, a single garage, a glorious rear garden, attractive original cottage-style internal oak doors, good broadband connection, gas central heating and all the other usual mains connections. This home is perfectly placed for walking into town to enjoy all the many varied amenities offered.

Alnwick, with its cobbled streets and beautiful old buildings, has recently had the honour of being voted one of the best places to live in the UK. Alnwick is a town brimming with history and culture, from the tranquillity of Barter Books to the splendour of the Alnwick Castle and gardens. The town benefits from excellent transport links with frequent buses between Berwick, Morpeth and Newcastle and is a short drive to Alnmouth train station and, as it is situated just moments from the A1, it is perfect for those needing to commute. There is an excellent selection of local food retailers, delis, bakeries and butchers as well as larger chain supermarkets. The town centre also has excellent amenities including several banks, GP surgeries, dental practices and a fabulous leisure centre to name but a few.

The front door opens into a good-sized kitchen/diner, doors lead to the garden and the hallway. There is a useful spacious cupboard beneath the stairs offering excellent storage.

The first reception room is currently utilised as a dining room and showcases a beautiful feature fireplace with a cast iron insert with a wooden surround. Two windows take advantage of the views to the front. The picture rail and coving add to the charm and character offered by this spacious room in addition to the stunning original wooden door.

A second original wooden door opens to a glorious lounge with French doors and a window which overlook the rear garden and allow so much natural light to circulate. Further lighting is by way of wall and ceiling lights. This room boasts a superb inglenook fireplace with a wood burner, which works in harmony with the stunning coving adorning the ceiling. The stairs lead to the first floor.

The well-equipped kitchen-diner offers a good number of wall and base units with a grey shaker-style door complemented by a beech-block wood-effect worksurface and grey splashback tiling. There is a large seven-burner Belling range cooker beneath a black range extractor fan, wine storage, an integrated under bench fridge, a full-sized integrated dishwasher and a round single bowl stainless steel sink with a drainer. There is ample space to sit and dine and three windows overlooking the rear garden allow for a tremendous amount of natural light to enter, making this an incredibly pleasant space in which to relax and share stories of the day whilst enjoying an evening meal. There are two uPVC doors providing external access: one which opens to the rear and one to the driveway at the front of the property. The utility room, with vinyl flooring, offers further units with a granite-effect work surface and mosaic splashback tiling. There is plumbing and space for a washing machine and space for further appliance in addition to a ceiling mounted airer which is a hugely useful asset when processing laundry.

The ground floor WC is an excellent feature as it negates the need to continually frequent the upstairs facilities. The suite comprises a white toilet. Natural light enters via a window to the side.

Taking the stairs to the first floor and passing a window halfway for natural light, the landing opens out to three bedrooms and a large family bathroom. Access to an incredibly large loft is available with a drop-down ladder. There is a sizable cupboard on the landing which houses the gas boiler but which is also spacious enough to incorporate a staircase up to the loft if you wished to create a loft conversion. All the bedrooms are neutrally decorated to allow the easy addition of accent colour should you so wish.

The primary bedroom is a good-sized double room which is tremendously light and bright with two windows overlooking the garden. There is good wardrobe storage available and the addition of spotlights above the bed enabling you to control the lights perfectly when reading a book or magazine is of benefit. The stripped wood floorboards and high ceiling impresses and adds to the calm and restful atmosphere.

Bedroom 2 is a large double room with two large windows with attractive wooden windowsills. This carpeted room is another calm and peaceful space.

Bedroom 3 is a spacious single which could easily incorporate a double bed if you so wished. A large window allows for natural light and this space is also carpeted.

With stripped wood varnished floorboards and wall panelling, the family bathroom is a lovely spacious room. There is a bath with a chrome Victorian-style shower tap, a white close-coupled toilet, a pedestal wash hand basin and a separate shower cubicle with a glass door, wet-walling and an electric shower within. Natural light enters via a large window.

Externally, there is driveway parking leading to a single garage, a storage shed and a beautiful, landscaped garden. Cleverly designed to take advantage of all the space, this garden offers gravelled areas, sitting areas, mature trees and shrubs all of which create the perfect space in which to relax and spend time with family and friends.
