Re/max Northumberland are proud to welcome to the market this attractive and
well cared for stone - built semi - detached 3 bedroom cottage located in the
Northumberland village of High Hauxley. The property, which has been
incredibly tastefully decorated, boasts a large low - maintenance front garden
framed by a stone wall and a wrought iron gate, as well as a lovely rear
garden which is equally as easy to maintain. The property has a gated block
paved driveway, uPVC windows and doors, two fully boarded lofts offering
superb storage, electric central heating, and all the other usual mains
connections. This family home, located in an area of outstanding natural
beauty, is ideal as a main home, holiday home or a second home.
High Hauxley is a beautiful village located close to Amble and a few minutes’
drive from Hauxley Wildlife Discovery Centre – one of the best places to enjoy
wildlife spotting in the North East. With bird hides and wonderful walks, the
Discovery Centre offers you a unique insight into the lives of a whole host of
wildlife. Amble, Northumberland’s friendliest port, presents 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.
Entry is via the front door into a spacious porch, showcasing a dado rail, an
engineered oak floor and housing a library. This space, with loft access
above, creates a warm welcome.
French doors open from here into a dining room which extends through to the
living room and further to the uPVC conservatory beyond. The engineered oak
flooring continues in the dining room, creating a seamless transition between
the different spaces. The lounge, which leads off the dining room, is a
spacious, light and bright room, with two windows with deep sills overlooking
the front of the property. Three arched nooks form an attractive feature and
are perfect for displaying photographs or ornaments. The large inglenook
fireplace, with a slate hearth, wood surround and a newly fitted wood burner,
forms an exquisite focal point. The wooden ceiling beams are a beautiful
feature. The conservatory, with an oak - type flooring, leads from the living
room and is a gloriously light and airy space in which to sit and relax whilst
enjoying the afternoons and appreciating the views of the rear garden, which
emanates a Spanish feel.
The rear hallway, with brushed chrome switches and sockets, opens via French
doors into a beautiful newly fitted kitchen - breakfast room. Your eyes are
immediately drawn to the inglenook, with wooden shelf above and grey - quartz
coloured tiling within, which forms the space for the free - standing range
cooker. There are many stylish high gloss white wall and base units including
a wine rack, deep drawers, pull outs and a built - in microwave. The immaculate
solid wood work surface, incorporating a black sink with a designer - looking
tap, works in harmony with the grey floor tiles and white brick splash back
tiling, creating a sublime look. The bay window is a gorgeous feature and
captures the pleasing views of the rear garden in addition to allowing a
natural light to enter. The breakfast bar, with matching work surface, is a
superb addition. The kitchen was only installed 18 months ago.
A uPVC door at the rear of the kitchen leads to a utility which offers
plumbing and space for a washing machine, plumbing and space for a full - sized
dishwasher, space for a free standing fridge - freezer and plenty of workable
work surfaces. There is further room to house a tumble dryer. Natural light
enters via a window overlooking the rear garden. A uPVC door provides entry to
the rear garden.
The bedroom accommodation is accessed via the rear hallway, with a cupboard
which houses the hot water cylinder and windows allowing for a good amount of
natural light. The solid wood cottage style doors with black handles are in
keeping with this charming property.
The primary bedroom is stunning. This spacious double room offers plenty of
fitted wardrobes, drawers and a dressing table. The wood beams are an
attractive feature and a window overlooking the front of the property allows
for natural light.
Bedroom 2 is a single room with fitted wardrobes and drawers. This room offers
a delightful window seat with fitted drawer and a view over the front garden.
Bedroom 3 is a good size and incorporates fitted wardrobes, top lockers and a
built - in dressing table. Should they be removed, this room would comfortably
house a double bed.
The family shower room has recently been modernised. The suite comprises a
double - sized shower cubicle with a sliding door and a waterfall shower head
within, a close - coupled WC and an attractive vanity unit with his and her
sinks with Victorian style chrome taps and storage beneath. Natural light
enters via a window overlooking the rear with additional lighting by way of
spotlights to the low maintenance ceiling. The space has been finished with a
pretty heater with extractor fan above and is fully tiled with a stone - effect
tile which creates a sleek and stylish look.
Externally, the rear garden, which can be accessed from the utility room or
conservatory, is a unique and private space. There is a built - in barbecue -
pizza area with a large paved area adjacent perfect for the alfresco dining
experience. There is a good - sized storage shed and plenty of raised beds which
are well stocked with cottage - style plants. The rustic - Spanish vibe created by
the railway sleeper planters is enhanced by the surrounding white gravelled
areas and the addition of the Astroturf lawn. The whole space is securely
fenced to allow children and family pets to play safely.
