Providing stylish accommodation for up to eight guests, this handsome townhouse makes a wonderful base for families and groups of friends visiting one of Northumberland’s most characterful market towns. Set within the conservation area of Alnwick, the property sits within easy reach of the bustling town centre.
Four stone steps lead up to the front door, opening into a cheerful porch and a tiled hallway. The ground floor reveals a welcoming lounge with a large bay window, Smart TV, generous seating and a fireplace as its focal point. Further along the hall is a pool room with seating and a Bluetooth speaker. At the end of the hallway, a step leads into the galley-style kitchen/diner, well equipped for preparing everything from simple breakfasts to celebratory meals. A dining table sits at the centre, creating a sociable place for gathering. On the first floor are three of the four bedrooms: two king-size rooms, each with its own en-suite shower room, and a charming twin bedroom. The family bathroom, complete with a freestanding bath and eye-catching decor, is also located here. A further staircase leads to the second floor, where a bright super-king-size bedroom sits beneath Velux windows. This airy retreat also includes an en-suite shower room and a sofa bed suitable for a child. For flexible sleeping arrangements, the king-size and super-king-size rooms all include zip-and-link beds that can be arranged as twins on request. Sliding doors from the kitchen open into an enclosed courtyard. This patio includes lighting, power, outdoor seating and a BBQ set into a large chimney, promising a wonderful setting for al fresco dining. On-street parking is available along the quiet road outside, subject to availability.
In the centre of town, independent shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants line the streets. Cultural highlights include a theatre, cinema, arts centre and a much-loved second-hand bookshop at the old railway station. Half a mile away stand two of the town's best-known attractions: the historic Alnwick Castle and its enchanting gardens. The dramatic Northumberland coastline is also within easy reach, with beautiful beaches at Alnmouth, Longhoughton and Warkworth all within 8 miles.
