YOPA are delighted to bring to the market this beautiful period mid-terrace home with lots of original features throughout. The home features four double bedrooms, two reception rooms, a kitchen, a utility room, a downstairs WC, and an upstairs bathroom. The home has also been extensively updated, with wooden replacement double glazed sash windows fitted to most windows around 18 months ago and the plumbing and electrics completely replaced five years ago. The home has all the usual mains connections, and is heated by dual zone gas central heating which is serviced annually. Alongside the wealth of retained period features are some modern touches, including chrome switches and sockets throughout.
Close to Osborne Road, Jesmond metro station and of course the nightlife Jesmond is so famous for, properties in this location that would make either a fabulous family home are rare to the market, so an early viewing is deemed absolutely essential. Thought to have been constructed in the late 1800s, this period home is located in the heart of Jesmond close to excellent local schools, the shops, restaurants and cafés of Jesmond as well as other excellent local transport links. Purpose built over three storeys, the property manages to retain many fine features associated with the period.
The home is approached through a front garden with a lawn and a path running in front of the bay window. A wooden original front door opens into a porch with a lovely high ceiling with coving, stripped wood floorboards and a dado rail, all original to the property.
A further wooden glass door leads into the main hallway. The hallway is a stunning space with lots of period features such as ornate plasterwork to the high ceiling and lovely plasterwork corbels to either side of a central archway. A lovely staircase with a stunning newel post, nice spindles and a big handrail takes pride of place in the hallway, which also features stripped wood floorboards and a lovely curved wall design feature.
The lounge/living room, accessed through a big original wooden door, also features stripped wood floorboards alongside a lovely bay window, a large original ceiling rose, large plasterwork coving and a picture rail. A stunning red-coloured marble fireplace with a green tiled hearth with brass detailing and a green tiled surround with cast iron insert sits on one wall.
Another big original wooden door also provides access to the dining room. The room boasts stripped wood floorboards, a lovely marble fireplace with a cast iron insert, a tiled surround and a tiled hearth. Additional detailing includes beautiful coving to the high ceiling and a picture rail. The back of the room opens out onto the rear yard via a door, which, alongside an adjacent window provides lots of natural light. A built-in cupboard provides storage space.
The kitchen is a lovely modern space. A large island, with drawers and with a real wood work surface on top and a breakfast bar space, sits in the centre of the room. Plenty of other base units with stainless steel fronts are fitted to the walls, whilst there is also room for a range cooker with a designer extractor fan already fitted above. The room features an exposed brick wall. The work surfaces are part wood and part wood effect. The sink is a Belfast-type. A large under stairs cupboard is accessed from the kitchen, whilst two large sash double glazed windows overlook the rear yard and provide plenty of natural light.
The utility room provides access to the rear yard via a wooden double glazed door. There is space for an American-style fridge freezer. The floor is fully tiled. A Belfast sink is offset by real wood work surfaces on either side. There is plumbing and space for a washing machine, and the gas boiler is housed here.
The WC has the same pretty tiled floor as the utility room, and a stained glass window overlooks the rear yard. The sloping ceiling is set with spotlights. This useful addition to the home features a pedestal wash hand basin and a close coupled WC.
There is storage space outside in the yard as well as a planted area.
Moving upstairs onto an open landing, a window provides natural light. The separate toilet has a window overlooking the yard, a close coupled WC and a tiled floor. The bathroom has a designer feel and comprises a fully stripped floor, two shelves with a sink on top, a large walk-in shower cubicle with a glass surround, a sash window overlooking the rear yard, a lovely cast iron fireplace with a tiled hearth and a large chrome heated towel rail.
Bedroom one is a large double bedroom, with a big ceiling rose and coving. A grand feature fireplace with marble surround and cast iron and tiled insert, all set on a tiled mossy green hearth, sits on one wall. The room has two big sets of windows and lovely stripped wood floorboards.
Bedroom two has a sash window overlooking the rear of the home, stripped wood floorboards, and a marble fireplace with cast iron surround and tiles either side sat on a tiled hearth. The room also boasts a built-in cupboard, coving to the ceiling and lovely original features.
Upstairs on the second floor, bedroom three is a big double bedroom with stripped wood floorboards, a shaped ceiling and a Velux for natural light. Bedroom four is another double bedroom, again with stripped wood floorboards, a shaped ceiling and a Velux window.
