3 Bed Detached House, Planning Permission, Hexham, NE47 7JL £550,000

The lounge is arranged to take full advantage of the dramatic outlook, with a large picture window framing uninterrupted views across open countryside. Glazed doors open directly to the front terrace, allowing the space to flow easily outdoors. With generous proportions and soft natural light, the room is equally suited for quiet everyday use or entertaining. The entrance hallway beside the kitchen leads to a guest WC and a separate utility room, keeping the practicalities of daily life discreetly tucked away.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom occupies the gabled extension and is an elegant, vaulted space, with tall glazing drawing in the views and natural light. The room enjoys the benefit of a dressing area and contemporary en-suite shower room, fitted with Roca sanitaryware, matt black brassware, and a minimalist walk-in enclosure. A separate WC lies adjacent.  

Across the landing are two further rooms, both with far-reaching views. One is a generous double bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe, while the other, currently used as a study, is equally spacious and offers excellent versatility for use as guest accommodation, additional living space or a dressing room. A linen cupboard provides useful storage on the landing. The main bathroom combines period charm and clean lines, with a freestanding cast iron roll-top bath set beneath a heritage-style rainfall shower, monochrome tiled flooring and deep-set windowsill.

Externally
The house is approached via a quiet country lane and sits behind a generous gravelled driveway with parking for several vehicles. The south-facing frontage has been landscaped with a simple terrace, ideal for morning coffee or evening drinks. To the side, a sheltered garden enjoys privacy from the lane, with layered planting, mature trees and glimpses of the surrounding hills beyond.

Planning permission has been approved for the construction of a double garage adjacent to the parking area, offering scope for further development in line with the property’s quality and setting.
