The Property
Bamburgh Flat is housed within the impressive Belford Hall, sitting peacefully amidst 5 acres of formal landscaped gardens and around 27 acres of protected parkland. Completed in 1756, the Hall passed through various ownerships until it was requisitioned during the Second World War. Following the war it was left in an unoccupied state and fell into disrepair until the mid-1980’s when it was converted into 16 individual self-contained apartments by the Northern Heritage Trust. Bamburgh Flat is located on the upper floor and sits centrally to the Hall known as “The Villa” and offers spacious and immaculately presented accommodation with high quality fixtures and fittings, tasteful décor throughout including wallpaper by Italian designer Versace and fabulous designer kitchen and bathrooms. The property will appeal to a number of buyers as either a family home or a secondary holiday home. In order to maintain the fabric of the building and communal areas to a high standard, the use of the property as a commercial holiday let is not permitted.
Entering from the rear of the Hall the communal portico entrance hallway instantly sets the scene for the property with original flagged floor, magnificent staircase to the upper floor with beautiful detailed frieze mouldings to the ceiling.
The front door opens into the welcoming entrance hall which is light and spacious and onward to the rest of the apartment. Off the hall is a useful utility room with storage and laundry solutions.
The beautifully presented drawing room is a room of generous proportions and benefits from dual aspect to the front and side with fabulous uninterrupted views over protected parkland and the surrounding countryside. The recessed sash windows have been upgraded by Ventrolla of Harrogate to offer easy glide and draft proofing with wooden shutters to the sides. An ornate cast iron gas fire set on a slate hearth with iron insert and attractive fire surround sits centrally to the room and offers a delightful and relaxing focal point.
The kitchen is finished to an immaculate standard with a fine selection of contemporary cabinetry with complementary quartz work surfaces and under cupboard lighting. Integral appliances include a gas hob with extractor over, electric oven, microwave, fridge freezer and dishwasher and the deep recessed windowsill has been cleverly converted into a breakfast area.
Another room which is beautifully presented with quality furnishings is the principal bedroom, complemented by an impressive selection of fitted wardrobes to maximise hanging and shelving space and also benefitting from a discreet integral fold away office area. The beautifully appointed en-suite bathroom comprises a white suite with bath, wash hand basin set within a vanity unit with illuminated mirror over, heated towel rail and WC with a useful linen cupboard. The guest bedroom is equally impressive with beautiful décor and fitted wardrobes and is served by the adjacent shower room.
Externally
The entrance to Belford Hall Estate is through two pillars and along a tarmacadam road which meanders through leafy woodland. The driveway continues through the estate following around onto the gravelled area to the rear of the main Hall with parking for several vehicles and access to the garage with power and light which is set within a block.
Leading from the communal entrance hall is a generously proportioned reception room with windows to the front elevation, which all the residents may share. Doors lead out to the landscaped gardens and protected parkland that surround the Hall with displays of colourful rhododendrons, native tree species of holly, yew and beech, Scots pine, various conifer mixes and flight pond consisting of around 27 acres in all – perfect for a stroll on a lovely day.
Agents Note
A service charge which covers building insurance, property repairs/maintenance, window cleaning, external redecoration, cleaning and maintenance of the communal areas, grass cutting and maintenance of the grounds applies and is payable annually in two 6 monthly installments. Details available upon request.
