Charming three-bed detached cottage with south garden, garage and period features.
Detached three double bedrooms, including ground-floor bedroom with en-suite WC
A charming three-double-bedroom detached cottage in the heart of Whickham, offered freehold and rarely available on this road. The house combines classic period detail — high ceilings, decorative mouldings and traditional fireplaces — with practical living spaces including two reception rooms and a fitted dining kitchen. A ground-floor double bedroom with en-suite WC provides flexible space for guests or multi-generational use.
The south-facing rear garden is a standout asset, mainly lawned with mature borders and a sunny aspect. Off-street parking is provided by a block-paved driveway leading to an attached garage with workshop/store room. The generous dining kitchen, separate utility room and tasteful bathroom with freestanding roll-top bath add immediate day-to-day comfort.
Practical points to note: the property dates from the early 20th century and has solid brick walls (insulation not evident), an EPC rating of E and average broadband speeds — potential buyers should factor in energy-efficiency improvements. The plot is modest in size and the home is around 926 sq ft, so those seeking large gardens or very modern, open-plan living may need to adapt layouts or upgrade rooms.
Well-placed for Whickham Village amenities, good and outstanding local schools, and public transport, this home will suit families seeking character and flexibility or downsizers wanting a comfortable, village-centre base with scope to improve energy performance and personalise finishes.
