Summary - YARROW COTTAGE SOUTH CHARLTON ALNWICK NE66 2NA
3 bed 2 bath Bungalow
Energy-efficient three-bed bungalow with south garden and two parking spaces.
New-build end-terrace bungalow with contemporary finishes
A newly built three-bedroom bungalow finished to a contemporary standard, Elsdon Cottage offers light, low-maintenance living in a peaceful Northumberland hamlet. The ground-floor double bedroom and shower room make single-floor life simple, while two first-floor bedrooms and a family bathroom provide flexibility for guests or a home office. Energy efficiency is a real selling point: an air-source heat pump and ground-floor underfloor heating reduce running costs and modern fittings include Silestone worktops and oak internal doors.
Set on a large corner plot with a south-facing garden and French doors from the open-plan living/dining/kitchen, the house brings countryside views and outdoor space together with private parking for two cars. The property is timber framed and built with stone and slate to blend with the village character, and benefits from fast broadband and low local crime — good for remote working or quiet retirement.
Buyers should note a few practical points: the freehold is managed with a maintenance charge (around £85 per month / £1,020 annually) and council tax band is yet to be confirmed. A mining search is recommended given the region’s history, although the seller reports no known mining issues. The location is a small hamlet close to Alnwick, so expect limited immediate amenities and a rural commute.
Overall, Elsdon Cottage will suit buyers wanting modern, energy-efficient, low-maintenance living with some village charm. It’s particularly well suited to downsizers or anyone prioritising a practical ground-floor bedroom and private outdoor space, provided they’re comfortable with managed freehold arrangements and a rural setting.
