A practical utility area extends from the kitchen, providing additional storage, laundry facilities and access to the garden, together with a convenient ground floor cloakroom, ensuring the home functions as beautifully as it looks.

Ascending to the first floor, the sense of light continues. A large landing window perfectly frames the elevated outlook across neighbouring rooftops towards the Northumberland coastline, offering a daily reminder of the property's exceptional location.

The principal bedroom enjoys peaceful views across the green and benefits from an extensive range of fitted wardrobes together with a stylish en-suite shower room.

Three further bedrooms provide versatile accommodation for family life, guests or home working. Two generous double bedrooms to the rear enjoy remarkable long-distance views stretching towards the sea, while the fourth bedroom currently serves as an attractive home office overlooking the green.

The family bathroom has been beautifully finished with full-height tiling and quality fittings, complementing the en-suite and continuing the home's consistent standard of presentation.

Outside, the gardens are every bit as impressive as the accommodation within. Thoughtfully landscaped to provide a series of distinct outdoor spaces, the rear garden has been designed for both relaxation and entertaining. A substantial paved terrace extends directly from the house, creating the perfect setting for al fresco dining, with further seating areas to capture the afternoon and evening sunshine. Mature planting, including a striking Acer and graceful weeping beech, provides colour, structure and privacy throughout the seasons. Beyond the garden lies the detached double garage and generous driveway, accessed via a private gate.

Beautifully presented throughout and occupying one of the finest positions within the development, this exceptional home offers an increasingly rare combination of generous living space, mature landscaped gardens, outstanding parking, and delightful open views.
