The Property**
6 The Croft is a fantastic modern family home situated in the west end of the popular market town of Hexham, perfectly positioned for easy access to local amenities and to make the most of all that the fantastic local countryside offers from the doorstep. The accommodation is arranged across three floors, with lovely large living spaces sweeping across the ground floor, and six bedrooms to the upper floors. There is huge flexibility and versatility to configure for individual requirements. Sleek contemporary colour palettes and generous rooms offer bright, airy and welcoming modern living.
A large, light hall with open staircase and reception rooms radiating off creates a grand entrance. To the left, a snug leads through into a vast orangery style conservatory, currently set up as a dining room with space to seat at least eight, and French doors into the garden. A downstairs WC doubles as a cloakroom with bench seating and coat pegs. The spacious sitting room has a wonderful arched feature fireplace and bay window with views out to the patio and gardens beyond. Further reception space is provided by the family room, which could also be used as a play room or home office, for example.
The impressive kitchen/dining room is fitted with a range of modern units, polished granite worktops and integrated appliances. A promontory bench has space for work and informal seating, whilst the dining area has ample space for a table and chairs plus French doors out into the garden, ideal for barbeques and summer entertaining. Adjoining the kitchen is the utility room providing further work space and storage, and plumbed for laundry.
There are four tastefully decorated double bedrooms arranged across the first floor. The principal bedroom benefits from a bay window and garden views, a cased opening into a dressing area with fitted wardrobes and a lovely en-suite bathroom with bath and separate shower cubicle. The second or guest bedroom has an en-suite shower room, whilst the third and fourth bedrooms are served by the smart family bathroom, also with a separate shower cubicle.
Stairs continue off the large, open landing to the second floor where there are two further double bedrooms and a hatch into loft storage.
