3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Hillcrest, Whitley Bay NE25

A striking semi-detached residence that successfully combines timeless character with contemporary living, this impressive home occupies a highly desirable position on Hillcrest and offers far more accommodation than first meets the eye. Beyond the attractive frontage, a welcoming vestibule opens into a beautiful entrance hall where original stained-glass detailing, high ceilings and traditional features immediately establish the property’s character. To the front of the home, the living room provides an elegant setting, centred around a feature fireplace with multi-fuel stove and complemented by large windows that draw in natural light. Sliding doors lead through to the dining room, a wonderfully atmospheric space featuring exposed brickwork, a second stove and ample room for entertaining. The combination of original features and carefully considered décor creates a room full of warmth and personality. To the rear, the property opens into an impressive kitchen fitted with a quality range of cabinetry, granite work surfaces, a range-style cooker and breakfast area. Beyond lies the true centrepiece of the home; a substantial open-plan family living space flooded with natural light from skylights above and opening directly onto the rear garden. This outstanding room provides the perfect environment for modern living, effortlessly connecting indoor and outdoor spaces. The ground floor is further enhanced by a utility room, ground floor WC and internal access to the garage. To the first floor, the principal bedroom enjoys generous proportions. A second substantial double bedroom offers similarly impressive dimensions, while the third bedroom provides flexibility as an extra bedroom or home office. The family bathroom has been thoughtfully updated and features a freestanding bath, walk-in shower enclosure, wash hand basin and WC. The home continues to the second floor via alternating tread staircase where two versatile loft rooms provide excellent additional accommodation. Whilst not formally classified as bedrooms, they offer a range of potential uses including hobby rooms, home offices, dressing rooms, guest accommodation or storage. Externally, the South-East facing rear garden is a particular highlight. Extensive paved terraces create multiple seating and entertaining areas, whilst mature planting and trees provide a wonderful sense of privacy. Beyond the formal garden lies an additional section of mature garden extending further to the rear, creating a depth and feeling of space. The property also benefits from a driveway providing off-street parking together with an attached garage. Hillcrest remains one of Whitley Bay’s most established and desirable residential locations, conveniently placed for access to local schools, shops, transport links, Whitley Bay town centre and the coastline.
