5 bed semi-detached house for sale

Stanhope Avenue, Hartlepool, 9 TS26

A stunning 5 Bedroom Semi Detached family home within the highly desirable location of Stanhope Avenue, Hartlepool. A beautiful home which is exceptionally well finished to a high level throughout, with living accommodation over 3 floors, rich in period charm & features inside and out. Occupying a generous plot, the property enjoys a gated imprint driveway, side storage, front courtyard and a landscaped south-facing rear garden, with two bay windows to the façade and a canopy over the front door. The property is ideally located only a short walk to the town centre with a wealth of amenities.

As you enter the home, you’re initially welcomed into a reception vestibule with original decorative tiling underfoot. The vestibule is filled with an abundance of natural light courtesy of the glazed frame around the main front door. A beautiful stained glass partition wall and half glazed door provides an incredible feature separation between the vestibule and a spacious hallway beyond. The hallway sets the tone for the remainder of the home with high ceilings, deep skirting, coving and wooden flooring underfoot. The wood turned staircase enjoys lovely, exposed treads with a stylish central runner. Stripped back original oak doors are fitted throughout the home, adding to the period charm. Up in the far-left corner you’ll see the original servants bell system which is fully functional and links through to restored buttons beside the fireplaces within the reception rooms.

A doorway to the left leads you through into a well-proportioned living room with beautiful parquet style flooring, feature fireplace, decorative ceiling rose, high ceilings, elaborate coving, picture rail, wall panelling and a large bay window to the front aspect.

Adjacent to the living room, you’ll find a second reception room of equally large proportions with a soft pale carpet, feature fireplace, decorative ceiling, picture rail and a half-glazed doorway to the rear aspect which is framed with glazing all around. This space is currently being utilised as a family snug and playroom, which ideally opens up to the patio and garden beyond during the summer months.

Completing the ground floor, off the rear of the hallway you’ll discover a stunning open plan kitchen & dining room which is the heart of this incredible family home. You’re initially welcomed into the dining area with a delightfully tactile brick slip feature wall to the right, along with a series of fitted units finished in a Shaker style in a blend of cream and mid grey, inclusive of a built-in bench seat with a window looking out across the private rear garden. A series of ceiling recessed LED spotlights illuminate the space on an evening. The main kitchen presents cream Shaker style units to either side with quartz worktop, Butler sink with mixer taps, complimented by a range of integrated appliances inclusive of dishwasher, wine cooler, fridge freezer, microwave, coffee machine, pullout bin, along with a freestanding range cooker. The kitchen is complimented by a utility & laundry room to the far right with sliding door, including a guest washroom, with fitted units throughout. A door leads out from the kitchen into the garden.

As you ascend the staircase, you’re welcomed onto a spacious first floor landing, which directly services 4 bedrooms, a family bathroom and a separate WC, ideal for busy families. The master bedroom is located to the front aspect with fitted wardrobes, feature fireplace and a large bay window. Bedroom 2 is a large double room located to the rear aspect, which enjoys a walk-in wardrobe, which could easily be converted into an ensuite by any potential buyers. The family bathroom is a good size with a modern feature rolltop bath with silver claw feet, Victorian inspired sink and an oversized walk-in shower, with a blend of wood panelling and grey brick tiles adorning the walls. Bedroom 3 enjoys a lovely bay window to the rear aspect which provides views over the garden below. Bedroom 4 is currently being utilised as a home office / study.

A secondary staircase leads up to the second floor which plays host to a vast single space, which has been full opened up from what was originally two bedrooms rooms. The space has been prepared for the next owners with a blank canvas to create. There’s a ‘birds nest’ style room centrally located within the space, which was intended as a reading escape, but would make an incredible children’s bedroom or a games room.

The south-facing rear garden is a suntrap, delivering a blend of Indian stone patio, central lawn, raise sleeping beds, decked outdoor dining area and a brick storage building.
