"A beautifully restored end-of-terrace period house with charming original features and contemporary updates"
The Property
Norham House is a beautifully restored period home, brimming with character and refined detailing, situated in the sought-after village of Corbridge. This handsome end-of-terrace property has been refurbished to an exceptionally high standard and blends traditional elegance with contemporary enhancements, offering spacious accommodation across two floors. With its striking façade, generous proportions, and impressive original features, it is a home of notable distinction.
The entrance vestibule leads into a magnificent central hallway, where the striking black-and-white tiled floor, dado-height panelling, and elegant staircase set a sophisticated tone. The principal reception rooms are rich in period detail. The sitting room is a grand yet inviting space, with an ornate marble fireplace, intricate cornicing, deep skirting boards, and a decorative ceiling rose. A large west-facing bay window frames picturesque views across the valley, flooding the room with natural light.
The dining room, equally impressive in scale and style, features a second marble fireplace and high ceilings adorned with delicate cornicing. French doors open onto the south-facing garden, ensuring the room remains bright and airy, while also providing a seamless transition to the outdoor space.
Beyond, the kitchen has been reimagined with contemporary flair, featuring deep green cabinetry topped with sleek quartz worktops. A central island, with an integrated hob and breakfast bar seating, enhances both function and form. Exposed brickwork lends a rustic charm, complementing the modern fittings, which include a double oven and an inset sink with mixer tap. Bi-fold doors open onto the southeast-facing courtyard, bringing in an abundance of natural light. A cleverly designed utility cupboard, as well as a ground floor WC tucked beneath the stairs, completes this level.
Ascending to the first floor, the original staircase is a feature in itself, with elegant panelling and cornicing leading to a half-landing where the family bathroom is situated. Designed with a luxurious aesthetic, this beautifully finished space features a freestanding double ended oval bath and a walk-in shower, all set against a striking tiled feature wall with recessed shelving.
The principal bedroom, located to the front, is a serene and generously sized retreat. Two large windows capture uninterrupted views over the valley. A stunning feature fireplace, high ceilings, and fitted wardrobes further enhance the space. The second double bedroom is equally charming, with another period fireplace and classic cast-iron radiators. A third bedroom, currently used as a study, offers versatility – ideal as a home office, nursery, or guest room.
Externally
The gardens at Norham House are thoughtfully arranged, with mature planting and private seating areas. The west-facing garden is a charming, well-established space with a stone pathway leading to the south side, where a low-maintenance gravelled garden provides further opportunities for personalisation. A neatly enclosed courtyard, accessed from the kitchen’s bi-fold doors, offers a peaceful spot for morning coffee or alfresco dining.
A sizeable garage, accessible from Corchester Avenue, provides secure off-street parking and valuable storage.
