"A unique Art Deco style detached family home with extensive mature gardens, close to the picturesque market town of Hexham"
The Property
Clontibret is a wonderful Art Deco style detached house offering generous rooms with flexible uses to suit every family and fantastic gardens extending to approximately 0.5 acres altogether. This home is situated in a scenic, quiet location on the outskirts of Hexham, with countryside views, yet within just a short distance of all the facilities and amenities the market town has to offer.
The double height entrance hall creates a grand first impression and is a light, bright space to receive visitors, sit to remove shoes and coats and enjoy the sweeping views from the garden room. This floor also has access to the incredible storage this property has to offer, divided into individual areas including two workshop sections. Almost the whole of the ground floor is dedicated to storage with the option to create different rooms, for example a garage, gym, cinema room or wine cellar.
Stairs rising from the entrance hall lead to a large landing with a generous sitting room off to one side. This room is a wonderful place to relax, with light flooding in through the floor to ceiling window at one end, the elegant curved bay window at the other end and two delightful porthole windows in typical Art Deco style. A marble fireplace is a further pleasing period feature. To the other side of the landing is the fantastic kitchen with dining and living space. The kitchen has an excellent range of wall and floor units and integrated appliances including oven, combi oven and warming drawer, dishwasher fridge/freezer and an induction hob on the vast island bench and breakfast bar. The kitchen is decorated in pleasing muted contemporary tones and enjoys views out onto the terrace – ideal for summer entertaining – gardens and fields via the window and French doors. It is a perfect family and entertaining space: open to a dining area large enough for a table to seat at least eight diners and a sitting area with room for sofas and chairs to pull up around the stove or to sit in and gaze out of the bay window at the countryside view. Off the family room is a useful and well equipped utility room with storage, laundry facilities and doors to the garden and a WC.
Back to the landing and a further staircase heads up to the second floor where the stunning principal bedroom suite offers dressing room with built-in wardrobes and leafy rooftops views, a smart, immaculate en-suite shower room and the elegant bedroom itself with another round feature window. Four more good sized, light, bright and attractive bedrooms are found on this floor, alongside a beautiful family bathroom with modern curved bath and separate shower.
On the top floor is a large room with windows on three sides, providing an amazing almost panoramic view of the countryside and towards Hexham. This space is currently set up as a home office, but it would lend itself to many different uses such as a sixth bedroom or play room. A build-in cupboard provides storage and a door leads out onto the roof.
Externally
A sweeping driveway with ample parking for several vehicles heads around the house to the rolling shutter door of the workshop. This could be reconfigured to create an integral garage. Clontibret’s gardens with extensive lawns, seating areas and a wooden pergola to the front, and gravelled and raised beds to the rear are surrounded by mature trees, bushes, shrubs and flowering borders, providing a high degree of privacy and tranquility. Clontibret covers approximately 0.5 acres altogether.
