History
The property, we understand, was built as accommodation for N.C.O.'s stationed at the Spanish Battery (known as a \"Grace Of Favour\" home) owned originally by the Duke Of Northumberland before becoming privately owned. The oldest part of the house comprises three rooms built on top of one another, whilst in the 1800s the now dining /lounge area was added. Many homes on the street, including this one, interlock with one another via the neighbouring dwelling. The configuration of these rooms make it a splendid family home.
Exterior
There are extensive established gardens to the rear of the home that have been lovingly planted with apple trees and the like , creating an informal yet happy feel to the space.The various levels are ideal for those looking for that special secret garden , a place one would imagine a potting shed with an adult asleep on a stategically placed deck chair!!! whilst positioned with sun and river in full view and a cup of tea in hand!!!
Disclaimer
We have been informed by the vendor that this property is situated in a conservation area and is currently classed as a Grade II listed building. There have been recent consultations with representatives of North Tyneside Council as well as the D.O.E and the current owner has indicated that the addition of a conservatory as well as utilisation of the roof space over the lounge may be acceptable. Prospective purchasers must make their own enquiries regarding this.
