The Property
Occupying a private position within an exclusive development on the site of the former Croft House Girls’ School, 1 The Croft is a substantial detached family house offering over three floors of beautifully presented accommodation, complemented by south-facing gardens and an exceptionally convenient setting within Hexham’s highly regarded West End.

Constructed in an elegant neo-Georgian style, the property combines classical proportions with modern construction and practical family living. Generous reception rooms, a well-appointed breakfasting kitchen, five bedrooms and flexible upper floor accommodation create a house equally suited to family life, home working and entertaining. Schools, sporting facilities and the amenities of Hexham are all within easy walking distance, while the surrounding Tyne Valley countryside remains readily accessible.

The property is entered via a welcoming reception hall, a bright and spacious introduction to the accommodation and a reflection of the generous proportions found throughout the house.

The principal reception room is an elegant sitting room overlooking the front of the property. Well-balanced and beautifully presented, it provides an inviting setting for both everyday living and formal entertaining.

At the heart of the house lies a spacious breakfasting kitchen, fitted with an extensive range of wall and floor units beneath granite work surfaces. Stone flooring enhances the practical nature of the space, while integrated appliances and generous preparation areas make it ideally suited to modern family life.

The kitchen flows naturally into an adjoining family room, creating a sociable and versatile living space. French doors open directly onto the rear terrace and gardens, allowing the accommodation to extend seamlessly outdoors during the warmer months.

A separate formal dining room provides an excellent setting for entertaining and family celebrations, enjoying an attractive bay window and ample space for larger gatherings.

Completing the ground floor is a further reception room, currently utilised as a gym, offering considerable flexibility as a playroom, garden room, home office or additional sitting room according to individual requirements. A conveniently positioned cloakroom/WC and integral garage further enhance the practicality of the accommodation.

The first floor is arranged to provide four well-proportioned bedrooms, two of which benefit from en-suite facilities, while the remaining two are served by a spacious family bathroom. The principal suite is further enhanced by a dedicated dressing room.

The second floor extends the accommodation with a generous double bedroom featuring an en-suite shower room, together with a further versatile room, currently arranged as a fully fitted Hammonds home office. Benefiting from a walk-in dressing area and its own en-suite shower room, this space is equally well suited to continued home working or, should requirements change, could readily be reinstated as an additional bedroom.

Externally
1 The Croft occupies a particularly attractive plot within this established residential development. To the rear, the south-facing garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to create a series of terraces, lawns and well-stocked planted borders, providing colour and interest throughout the seasons.

Sheltered and secluded, the garden provides an excellent setting for outdoor dining, entertaining and everyday family enjoyment. The terraced arrangement creates distinct seating areas, while mature planting enhances both privacy and year-round appeal.

The property has also been enhanced with a 5.5kW solar photovoltaic system incorporating battery storage together with an electric vehicle charging point. During the summer months, the system is capable of meeting much of the household’s electricity demand, with surplus energy exported back to the National Grid or used to charge an electric vehicle, helping to reduce running costs while improving overall energy efficiency.

To the front, a driveway provides private parking and access to the attached garage, while the surrounding development enjoys a peaceful setting, rarely found so close to the centre of Hexham.
