The Property
Dating back to the late 1880s and later converted into a three-bedroom maisonette, South Lea is a versatile and spacious property conveniently located near the centre of Corbridge. This delightful home offers the added benefits of a low council tax band and the potential for off-street parking, making it a unique and attractive option in a central village location.

Typical of the Victorian period, the property boasts high ceilings, with modern decorative cornicing installed to complement the traditional style. The entrance staircase creates an inviting welcome, highlighted by exposed brick and modern strip lighting. The well-equipped kitchen has a rustic charm with its warm-toned wooden worktops, open shelving, and large pantry storage cupboards.

The sitting room on the other side of the property, benefits from a large south-facing bay window, originally an oriel window, which floods the generous space with natural light. A working open fire with a hearth and wooden mantel adds a cosy touch, while a combination of alcove and wall-mounted shelving maximises storage space.

The property is remarkably versatile, with an adaptable room on this floor that can be tailored to individual needs. This spacious room, featuring high ceilings, can be modified to serve as a separate dining room, third bedroom, or designated home office. A thoughtfully designed shower room completes the ground floor, featuring a walk-in shower with a folding door and smart storage solutions.

At the top of the staircase, ample space allows for a separate work area if required, with multiple power outlets and a telephone socket.

The two generously sized double bedrooms are both similar in size and design, with exposed beams and brick walls adding a unique character. Velux and dormer uPVC double windows provide ample natural lighting and pleasant views across Corbridge rooftops. The largest bedroom includes a well-appointed adjoining en-suite and neatly integrated cabinetry beneath the wash hand basin.

Externally
The enclosed backyard is designed for low maintenance, featuring a flagged area and a patch of artificial lawn, making it an ideal social space for entertaining. Additionally, it includes a storage shed and a paneled fence. With the necessary consent, this area could potentially be opened to provide off-street parking.
