SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION
No. 18 Northumberland Avenue provides one of the most exceptional semi-detached houses we have had the pleasure of viewing within the centre of Gosforth. The property was purchased by the current owners in 2009 and has undergone significant renovation works to create a stunning one-off luxury home. The property has a deceptive frontage onto Northumberland Avenue, with a relatively narrow approach to the house, where there is good car parking and access to the integral garage. The rear of the plot has two to three times the frontage of the Northumberland Avenue entrance and has a significant south and west facing professionally landscaped garden, with beautiful terraces, an outdoor audio system and stunning planting. The house has been refurbished to a standard rarely seen in properties under £2 million within the heart of Gosforth. The standards that have been set and the quality of the design are simply stunning. The accommodation includes a superb entrance reception hall with cloakroom/wc and a porcelain limestone floor. The drawing room is at the front of the house and has a Chesney fireplace. An open archway leads through to the dining room with double doors onto the garden and a Chesney fireplace. The kitchen is magnificent; designed and fitted by Herrington Gate with a range of walnut base, wall and drawer cabinets and Siemens appliances. The kitchen is open in turn to the garden room, with three sets of double doors leading out onto the terrace and gardens. The utility & laundry room is to the front and side of the house and connects to a gardener’s wc, as well as the large integral garage. To the first floor of the property the master bedroom has a Herrington Gate supplied dressing room and en-suite bathroom. There are two further double bedrooms to the first floor; one at the rear with an en-suite bathroom and the third to the side and rear of the house with a dressing room and shower room. To the second floor there is a fourth bedroom set within the roof space, with en-suite shower. The landing leads to a large luggage store room and a staircase connects to a fifth bedroom. The house has double glazing set in wood frames, intelligent wiring and a sophisticated close circuit TV surveillance camera system. The Villeroy & Boch supplied bathrooms are complemented by very tasteful tiling and underfloor heating. The design of this house has been very well thought through. No. 18 Northumberland Avenue is exceptional. It is a complete one-off within the area and it will require internal viewing to fully appreciate the standards that have been set. Northumberland Avenue has a good range of houses and is close by to Elmfield Park and Elmfield Road, linking into the High Street. The property comprises:
Access is at the front of the house, with an apex roof to the entrance canopy and a tall panelled door with etched glass leading through to the entrance reception hall. RECEPTION HALL
