Haven Cottage is an attractive semi-detached family home offering almost 1,000 sq ft of light-filled, flexible accommodation arranged over four levels on two floors. Configured to provide an elegant and practical living and entertaining environment, the property offers potential for use as a primary residence, holiday home or holiday let.

The ground floor accommodation flows from a welcoming double-height reception hall with a modern fully-tiled family shower room, walk-in storage and galleried landing over. Steps lead down to the garden floor where there is an extensive 22 ft open plan kitchen/breakfast and sitting room with exposed wooden flooring throughout. The kitchen/breakfast room has a range of wall and base units, complementary quartz work surfaces, modern integrated appliances and space for a good-sized table. The remaining dual aspect sitting area space, configurable to the purchaser’s own requirements, has a feature fireplace with woodburning stove. Both areas offer full-height glazing incorporating French doors to the rear terrace with sea views beyond. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a front aspect bedroom, accessible from the reception hall.

On the part-vaulted first floor, a split-level galleried landing gives access to the remaining accommodation. This provides a principal bedroom with a contemporary fully-tiled en suite shower room and full-height glazing incorporating arched double-height French doors to a decked private balcony overlooking the rear garden and with far-reaching views to the sandy beach and North Sea beyond. A further double bedroom and a modern family bathroom complete the first floor accommodation.

Outside

The property is set behind an area of level lawn in a small cul de sac off a no through road leading to the beach, a stone’s throw distance. Having plenty of kerb appeal, it is approached over a block-paved side driveway providing private parking. The well-maintained wraparound garden is laid mainly to level lawn enclosed by low-level stone walling and picket fencing. It features a generous paved terrace, ideal for entertaining and relaxing, the whole offering stunning views towards the beach, St Mary’s Haven and the North Sea beyond. It also enjoys spectacular views over neighbouring Embleton Bay and towards Dunstanburgh Castle Golf Course and the silhouette of Dunstanburgh Castle

Located in the Northumberland Coast National Landscape, the small National Trust-owned village of Low Newton-by-the-Sea has a village pub, The Ship Inn with microbrewery and, a sandy beach giving access to St Mary’s Haven, from which the property takes its name.
