Set in the peaceful hamlet of Longtown at the foot of the Black Mountains, this substantial detached period home combines traditional character with sustainable modern systems. Vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and oak flooring give generous living spaces a warm, authentic feel. The bespoke kitchen with solid oak worktops and walk-in pantry opens to a dining area with views toward a nearby waterfall — ideal for family life and entertaining.
Accommodation is flexible across multiple levels: four bedrooms and three bathrooms including two en‑suites and a ground-floor double bedroom with en‑suite, suitable for single-level living or guests. A lower-level bedroom with garden access and a snug/home office adds adaptability. Modern comforts include roof-mounted solar panels, an 8.6 kW battery and infrared heating panels, reducing running costs and supporting off-grid capability.
Outside, mature landscaped gardens, a productive orchard and vegetable patch sit within a very large plot with multiple seating areas and a brook nearby. An outbuilding with electricity provides storage or workshop space. The property benefits from privacy, long rural views and very low local crime, while being within reach of local amenities, walking paths and schools.
Notable practical points: the house is stone-walled and assumed to have no wall insulation; heating is oil‑fed boiler with radiators; water is supplied from a borehole. Broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is average. There is a covenant affecting the neighbour’s land for track maintenance. The EPC is awaiting clarification.
