4 Bedroom Detached House, Shut Lane Head, Butterton

A detached, period residence which is sure to be instantly recognised locally and is situated at the end of what is arguably the most sought-after lane in the area.

The original nineteenth century building was formed of two cottages eventually being combined to create one larger residence. A significant extension in the early nineteen seventies created what is now a large, detached house extending to well over two-hundred square meters and commanding some absolutely fabulous views out to the front.

The house itself provides three large reception rooms along with fitted kitchen and an enormous utility/laundry room to the ground floor. On the first floor are up to five bedrooms with the extremely spacious principal bedroom suite including dressing a room and ensuite shower room. Whilst the house has been very well maintained by the current owners over the years, it is fair to say that it is ready for some cosmetic modernisation.

In addition to the house there is an extensive collection of brick and tile outbuildings with a footprint over one hundred square meters. The outbuildings include garages, workshops, stables and storerooms which provides tremendous potential for development either as further living accommodation or office/gym space. The plot in total extends to approximately 0.6 acres with gardens being mainly laid to lawn, mature shrub borders and vegetable garden. The house is approached through wooden gates onto a sweeping tarmac driveway which leads past the outbuildings to the front of the house providing extensive parking and turning space.

Shut lane head is conveniently located just a few miles from Newcastle town centre and within a five-minute drive of Junction 15 of the M6. The surrounding countryside provides some excellent rural walks along with pretty village pubs.

This property presents wonderful opportunity to create a breathtaking family home and is offered with no upward chain., Subject to a grant of probate.
