5 bed detached house for sale

Rockcliffe Way, Eighton Banks, Gateshead, Tyne And Wear NE9

A rare opportunity has arisen to acquire this substantial and beautifully presented property, offering far-reaching countryside views and extensive, mature gardens in the highly desirable village of Eighton Banks. Recently refurbished to a high standard by the current owners, this stunning home seamlessly blends characterful features with modern comforts, offering generous and versatile living space ideal for family life and entertaining alike.

Upon entering, you are welcomed by a charming entrance porch that leads into a spacious and inviting snug. This room is full of character, with a central staircase rising to the first floor and a focal point log-burning stove providing a warm and cosy ambiance. Double doors open into the formal lounge, a bright and elegant space featuring an electric stove-style fire set into an attractive fireplace, perfectly positioned to enjoy the panoramic views across the surrounding countryside.

The heart of the home lies in the fabulous open-plan dining kitchen, thoughtfully designed with a stylish range of cabinetry and integrated appliances including a fridge, freezer, and microwave, with ample space for a range-style oven. This sociable space flows beautifully and offers direct access to both the utility room and a second reception room. The second reception room and the formal dining room both enjoy direct access to the rear garden, making them perfect for summer entertaining or relaxing with family.

A generously proportioned sun room completes the reception space, with patio doors opening to the rear garden and offering a flexible area that could serve as a games room, home office, or a tranquil reading lounge. A convenient downstairs WC adds further practicality to the ground floor.

Upstairs, the spacious master bedroom suite is a true sanctuary, complete with built-in wardrobes and a luxurious en-suite bathroom featuring a jacuzzi-style bath and a separate multi-jet steam shower enclosure. There are three further double bedrooms, two of which benefit from their own well-appointed en-suites, making the property ideal for larger families or guests. An additional versatile room on this level provides further flexibility and can be used as a fifth bedroom, a second lounge, a children’s playroom, or a dedicated home office/study.

Externally, the property continues to impress. The front garden has been thoughtfully landscaped and includes a well-kept lawn, an attractive patio area to enjoy the sweeping countryside views, and an extensive driveway offering ample off-street parking in addition to the integral double garage. The rear garden is equally impressive —with an array of mature shrubs, trees, and flowering plants. A generous patio area offers an idyllic spot for al fresco dining or relaxing in the sun, while a detached garden room provides further space for hobbies, a gym, or even a home business.

Situated in a sought-after location, this unique home offers access to local shops, schools, and essential amenities. It is also well-positioned for commuters, with transport links and road networks nearby.
This remarkable property truly has it all—space, style, and stunning views—and early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate all that is on offer.
