84a Sandsfield Park really does gives you the best of both worlds. You get the friendly leafy streets and the quiet, settled feel that has attracted families to the Sandsfield Park estate for over 40 years, but with a modern home that’s less than 10 years old.
It’s a combination you don’t see very often – and this is one of only two McKnight Homes properties built here in 2016.
And you’re not short on green space. Heysham Park is just around the corner – perfect for morning walks, running the dog, or letting the kids burn off steam in the play area.
Inside, the layout feels spot on. A surprisingly open, welcoming hallway leads to a spacious lounge, and the stylish kitchen-diner at the back is ideal for modern living – with French doors opening straight onto the side garden.
The low maintenance garden wraps around the side of the house, with a stylish paved seating area and artificial turf - creating a flexible and private outdoor space.
There’s also plenty of room out front. It’s mostly taken up with a block paved drive but you could fence it in for a much more private garden set-up.
Upstairs, there are two double bedrooms and a decent-sized single – ideal for a nursery, guest space or home office. The bathroom has a clean, modern look with a full four-piece suite.
Families with young children will note that you’re only a 10 minute walk from Yewdale Primary School & Nursery or Belle Vue Primary School.
The journey to Belle Vue passes through Heysham Park - which is pretty much opposite your front door, just down Benwell Close.
It’s only a couple of minutes further to the community centre, the popular Reiver pub and a parade of local shops with a Spar and a Chinese takeaway.
And if you’re heading into town to hit the shops or catch up with friends you can walk it in under an hour, drive in less than 10 minutes or catch the bus.
This really is something of a Unicorn - a modern home in a classic, family-friendly estate – if that’s what you’ve been looking for, this might be your one and only chance!
Call me now to book your viewing – modern homes like this don’t come up very often in this sought after spot.
