A four-bedroom detached house in Hexham is now on the market for a guide price of £1.1 million.
Nestled in the Northumbrian countryside, the Glass House comes with "expansive gardens" and is part of an exclusive enclave counting nine architect-designed homes in total.
The house's "high specification" includes underfloor heating throughout, and efficient, argon-filled window glazing in all windows.
The ground floor showcases engineered Karhs oak wood flooring compatible with underfloor heating systems, as well as travertine floor tiles in the kitchen and utility areas.
The marble-tiled entrance porch leads to a versatile space on the right, which agent Finest Properties describes as "ideal for use as a designated home office, additional living space, or fourth bedroom."
A full-height window on the west elevation and a nearly full-width window on the southern aspect give the room plenty of natural light.
To the left of the entrance porch is a living room, featuring a full-height cathedral ceiling with a galleried landing above.
A double-height glazed wall is designed to maximise evening light, while large glazed double sliding doors open onto a sheltered, private patio.
The room is enhanced by a "contemporary" log burner and a modern staircase with glass banister to the first floor.
The kitchen is fitted with cream alabaster gloss units and complemented by regionally sourced star galaxy granite worktops and splash backs.
Integrated appliances include an induction hob, self-cleaning ‘pyrolytic’ oven, full-height fridge, separate freezer, dishwasher, and combination microwave oven.
The dining room, with north and south-facing windows overlooking the rear garden and private patio, leads into the garden room.
This room features an "attractive" seating area, slate tiled floor, fitted plant shelving, and an electronic water mist system.
The first floor has three double bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a separate laundry room.
The principal bedroom features cathedral-vaulted ceilings, large windows, and an ensuite bathroom.
Externally, the property is accessed through a gated entrance leading to a double garage and "generous" driveways, between which is a raised landscape bed with mature acer trees, slate chippings, and stone features.
A "standout" feature of the property is its rear garden, which features a mature bamboo grove and large pond.
The Glass House is within easy reach of several surrounding towns and villages.
Slaley is a five-minute drive from the property, and provides a few small amenities such as Slaley First School and a community owned pub called The Rose & Crown.
Hexham offers a full range of day-to-day amenities with supermarkets, a good range of shops and restaurants, leisure centre, doctor and dentist surgeries, a petrol station, professional services, and a hospital.
Slaley Golf Course Hotel & Spa is a ten-minute drive away, while the popular Tyne Valley village of Corbridge is also close by.
There are multiple state schools in Hexham, as well as Mowden Hall Prep School just outside Corbridge, and several private day schools in Newcastle.
