Number One Clayport Street is a striking Grade II* listed Georgian townhouse offering about 3,850 sq ft of recently refurbished living across four floors. The house combines original period detail — sash windows, decorative coving, deep skirtings and vaulted cellar — with high-quality contemporary finishes including travertine-tiled ensuites, oak flooring and a bespoke kitchen with AGA and island. High ceilings and large windows deliver abundant light and impressive townscape views towards the Market Place.
The layout suits a family seeking generous reception rooms and five ensuite bedrooms, or a discerning buyer wanting a special central-home with strong character. Practical features include two allocated off-street parking spaces accessed via an electric-gated stone arch, a utility room and a lower-level cinema/games room in the vaulted cellar. Local amenities, independent shops, Alnwick Castle and leisure facilities are all within an easy walk.
Important practical points: the property is Grade II* listed, which preserves historic detail but will restrict alterations and may increase maintenance and consent requirements. The courtyard parking is shared and the access/ownership arrangement is atypical — the courtyard is owned by the rear cottage with access rights granted. The building currently sits with an EPC D and the property’s council tax/status may require clarification (previously Business Rates or potential Band D). The area records above-average crime levels — buyers should satisfy themselves on security and insurance implications.
Overall, this is a rare, newly renovated period townhouse that will appeal to families or buyers seeking a substantial, characterful home in Alnwick town centre. Viewing is essential to appreciate the scale, detailing and the unique combination of historic architecture and modern comforts.
