4 bed detached house for sale

Tanners Road, Morpeth NE61

The Nearly New Barratt Home That's Ready The Day You Move In. No snagging, no building site mess or noise, no upper chain - just a 2024 four-bedroom family home on South Fields - one of Morpeth's most popular new developments.

Buying a new build should feel energising and exciting. But all too often it means months of annoying little snags, the dumper truck dawn chorus and a development that still looks like a building site.

This modern family home is past all of that. Bought new in June 2024, it's been lived in and looked after - and with the snagging list a thing of the past it’s now ready for whoever comes next.

The layout is the Barratt “Radleigh” style, and it's a good one for a family that needs their home to do a few different things at once.

At the back, the kitchen, dining and family areas run together in one open-plan space, with French doors opening straight onto the south-facing garden. The kitchen itself is fitted with high-gloss mocha units, white quartz-effect worktops and a peninsula breakfast bar - it's the kind of kitchen that makes cooking feel like a pleasure rather than a chore.

The separate utility room takes the washing machine and the day-to-day clutter out of the picture entirely.

The dining area sits alongside with its own window and the French doors, so the garden feels like a natural extension of the room when the weather plays along.

And it does get the sun - south-facing, enclosed by timber panel fencing, with a paved patio and lawn.

At the front of the ground floor, the lounge sits apart from all of that - a more relaxed and peaceful separate room, away from the kitchen noise, with enough space for two sofas and a quiet evening in.

And there's also a study, perfect if you work from home and don’t want to lose a bedroom or perch on the end of the dining table.

Upstairs, four bedrooms are laid out across the first floor. The main bedroom has windows on two sides, giving it a real sense of space and light. It has its own ensuite too. The second bedroom is a comfortable double. Bedrooms three and four work well as children's rooms or, as the current owners have used them, as a second study and a hobby room.

The family bathroom serves the remaining three bedrooms with a shower over the bath, pedestal basin and WC.

South Fields is a well-established and popular development on the edge of Morpeth. The town centre is around seven minutes by car, with a good mix of independent shops, cafés, pubs and restaurants. The station is only three minutes from the house - and from there, Newcastle Central Station is under 20 minutes on the train, with direct services to Edinburgh and London.

For school-age children, the nearby primaries are all rated “Good” or “Outstanding” by Ofsted, and King Edward VI Academy - one of Northumberland's most respected secondary schools - holds an “Outstanding” rating too.

A nearly-new four-bedroom family home that's genuinely ready to move into, with no snags and no chain to worry about - i’m expecting plenty of interest in this one - get in touch to arrange a viewing.
