Dating from 1842 and originally named Summerhill Place, Summerhill Street (west) occupies a delightful conservation area address, opposite The Church of St Matthew. The location is notable, just moments from the green spaces of Summerhill Park and Summerhill Bowling Club, and within walking distance of Newcastle Central Station, Newcastle Helix, and all city centre amenities. Available on the open-market for the first time in four decades, this charming home has been thoughtfully restored and improved. Careful contemporary interventions blend beautifully with the original plan, and echo the many architectural elements of the past. Grade Two Listed in 1987, the house displays a fine frontage with multi paned sash windows and woodwork painted in Little Greene’s Obsidian. Of particular note are working fireplaces, shutters, interesting door mantles and transoms, and a remarkable nineteenth century cast iron cooking range. Arranged over thee floors, the house exceeds 1,150 square feet, and includes a Reception Hall, a Living Room, a 16ft Dining Kitchen with a separate Pantry and glazed doors to the rear courtyard garden, a First Floor Landing, a 16ft Principle Bedroom, a Shower Room / WC, a Laundry Room, a Second Floor Second Bedroom, and a Bathroom. Externally there is a town front garden, and a rear courtyard. The house further benefits from double glazing, gas central heating, and resident permit car parking. Representing a very rare opportunity to acquire an important and historic city home of remarkable integrity and great style, viewing is highly recommended.
