Redeveloped from the former North View Farm and occupying a beautiful site within a popular area of Medburn, is this fabulous stone constructed luxury detached house. The property represents one of three houses which have been redeveloped from the former farm by Greenmore Developments, with the support of GMR Construction. This company is establishing a good reputation for their superior quality and standards of craftsmanship.
Plot 3 occupies a site which extends to 0.27 acres (to be confirmed) and a floor area for the house of 3,992 sq ft, plus the garage and studio of 709 sq ft.
The quality of the stonework and the construction detailing within this house is particularly high and the property has been superbly dressed internally to maximise the presentation of the rooms and its fabulous decoration.
The accommodation includes a delightful reception hall with ceramic tiled flooring and bespoke oak staircase, as well as oak panelled doors and chrome door furniture. The hall connects to a cloakroom/wc and gives access to the dining room at the front and a very elegant drawing room at the rear. The study is also at the front and could be a family room.
The last door leading from the hall connects to the kitchen/breakfasting room. All of the principal reception rooms are very tastefully decorated and have beautiful soft furnishing. The kitchen/breakfasting room is finished in wenge wood cabinets and has beautifully contrasting light granite worktops and fully integrated Bosch appliances. The breakfasting area has a media wall and plasma screen TV. Connecting from the kitchen is a utility room and an outstanding garden room which has a double height aspect to the north overlooking the gardens and countryside.
To the first floor the master bedroom is tastefully decorated and has its own walk-in dressing room, as well as an en-suite shower room and wet room.
There are three further double bedrooms at first floor level, all very well decorated and capable of accommodating double beds. Two of them have en-suite shower room facilities. The fourth bedroom has access to the family bathroom.
To the second floor there are two further double bedrooms set into the roof space with conservation skylights.
The property has underfloor heating to the ground and first floor and radiators to the second floor. It has double glazing, an oil fired system with individual controls to the majority of rooms and a contemporary lighting system. Beautiful views over the surrounding countryside are enjoyed from many of the windows.
The gardens are attractively landscaped with lawned areas and open terraces. There is also a large drive and courtyard with parking for many cars and a detached stone built double garage with separate pedestrian entrance leading to the office and studio above.
The house is one of three properties which have been developed within this former farm steading and has the opportunity for access to a leased paddock and grazing field at the rear.
This is a highly impressive home and in a location of Medburn which is to be fully admired because of its aspect and view and the convenient commute it enjoys into Newcastle and Ponteland. The house is a short walking distance from Darras Hall, which supports a cosmopolitan range of shops and restaurants.
The area easily links into Tyneside, the Team Valley, the Metro Centre and Newcastle’s international airport.
Medburn is increasingly becoming a popular residential area because of the high quality of houses that have been built in recent time, of which this is a very fine example. It is situated close to the far distant edge of Medburn and only one house away from the end of the avenue.
A well built home in a great area for which viewing is strongly recommended.
