Hazel Mill is situated in the delightful hamlet of Eachwick, a sought after location only a short distance from the village of Ponteland surrounded by stunning countryside. This fabulous, detached stone built family home has been beautifully designed to bring the outside in and make the most of the amazing views over the rolling acres of countryside, offering country living on the edge of town.
Ground Floor
The approach to Hazel Mill is wide and inviting with the driveway providing ample parking and leading to a double garage with twin up and over doors. To the ground floor, there is a spacious entrance lobby with wood flooring that extends throughout the property. A glass door leads into a wonderfully bright and expansive entrance hall with staircase to the first floor and access to the downstairs cloakroom.
To the right of the hallway, there is the elegant double aspect dining room, providing views over the front and the rear of the property, with a bespoke bar and mirrored wall. An archway leads you into the impressive kitchen which features an extensive range of wall and base cabinets with integrated appliances. A main feature of the kitchen is the larger central island with a granite worktop, double sink unit with mixer tap and a breakfast bar.
Bi-folding doors give access to a glass garden room with doors out into the garden; there is a wood burner allowing use of this space all year round. A door from the kitchen leads to the large utility room with extensive storage space, space for a washing machine and a dryer, as well as a Butler sink.
From the dining room, a door leads through to the ground floor guest suite where an inner hallway offers ample storage. The inner hallway leads to a bedroom with fitted mirrored wardrobes; this room could also be an additional lounge area or storage. At the end of the hall is the main guest bedroom, with views on either side over the gardens and a door to a Jack & Jill tiled shower room.
To the left of the entrance hall are the additional reception rooms, one being the double aspect drawing room, which has recently been redesigned and split into two areas by floor to ceiling open shelving. There is a built in TV with a gas fire below at one end of this room and to the other, double glazed doors lead into the family sitting room. The sitting room benefits from windows on all sides, providing 180 degree views of the property’s gardens and over the farmland beyond. A central feature of this room is the unusual yet very contemporary ‘hanging’ open fire.
First Floor
Beautiful oak and glass turned stairs lead up to the galleried first floor landing, where to the left is a long passageway leading to the double aspect principal bedroom suite offering three delightful window seats with storage beneath. The principal suite benefits from extensive fitted wardrobe space and a door to a fully tiled ensuite bathroom with freestanding bath and separate shower cubicle. At the other end of the hall are two further bedrooms, both of which have fitted wardrobes, and share a Jack & Jill bathroom.
Externally
Externally, the fabulous views over acres of rolling fields and countryside to the rear are perfect for relaxing on a summer’s day, or alfresco dining and entertaining friends and family. Paved terraces lead onto beautifully landscaped gardens with an abundance of mature and well established trees, shrubs and borders. A paved path takes you to a covered raised deck area, ideal for outdoor seating all year round. There is a lovely pond that features a wooden bridge with a rope handrail and a further wooden decked area with a hot tub. Hazel Mill also benefits from a 3.4 acre dpaddock and field shelter.
To the side of the house is a large and enclosed area that is gravelled and lawned, with a brick paved pathway and a large apple tree. A double wooden gate leads onto the driveway, which provides ample parking space and to the double garage.
The property also benefits from high tech specification with Cat5 wiring, mood lighting, Sonos music system with ceiling speakers, Fibre broadband and a full WIFI system.
