About
This is a fantastic family home with far more space than you might expect, offering four bedrooms, multiple living areas and a south-west facing garden that makes the most of the afternoon and evening sun.
The living room immediately sets the tone for the space on offer. It is a large, inviting room with plenty of space for the whole family to relax, centred around a striking exposed-brick fireplace.
An open archway leads naturally through to the dining room, creating a lovely flow between the two spaces while still allowing each room to have its own purpose.
The kitchen offers an excellent amount of storage and worktop space, with a breakfast bar providing a relaxed spot for morning coffee or casual meals.
Alongside the main living areas, the ground floor continues to impress with a separate utility room and downstairs WC, while the conservatory provides another versatile reception space overlooking the garden.
Currently used as a home office, it would work equally well as a playroom, snug or somewhere to simply sit and enjoy the outlook.
Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, giving families plenty of flexibility without having to compromise on living space downstairs.
The main bedroom is particularly impressive, stretching the full depth of the house and benefiting from its own ensuite shower room.
Three further bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the first floor, with the additional rooms offering plenty of options for children, guests or working from home.
Outside is another real highlight.
The south-west facing rear garden enjoys plenty of sunshine all day, with a generous lawn and paved seating area creating a brilliant setting for summer evenings, barbecues and entertaining.
To the front, the large block-paved driveway provides ample off-street parking.
Situated in a residential area of Birtley, the property is well placed for local schools, shops and everyday amenities, while excellent road connections make Newcastle, Gateshead, Durham and surrounding areas easily accessible.
With four bedrooms, an ensuite, generous living room, separate dining space, conservatory, utility room and a sun-filled south-west facing garden, there is a huge amount of space here for a family to really make their own Living Room (4.53m x 4.22m, 14'10" x 13'10") Dining Area (2.64m x 3.26m, 8'7" x 10'8") Conservatory (3.16m x 2.36m, 10'4" x 7'8") Kitchen (5.36m x 3.22m, 17'7" x 10'6") Utility Room (2.24m x 3.58m, 7'4" x 11'8") WC (1.01m x 1.37m, 3'3" x 4'5") Bedroom 1 (2.33m x 5.17m, 7'7" x 16'11") Ensuite (2.24m x 1.49m, 7'4" x 4'10") Bedroom 2 (3.03m x 3.64m, 9'11" x 11'11") Bedroom 3 (2.71m x 3.24m, 8'10" x 10'7") Bedroom 4 (2.34m x 2.60m, 7'8" x 8'6") Bathroom (2.64m x 1.63m, 8'7" x 5'4")
