Set in a quiet hamlet just outside Callaly, this traditional mid-terrace stone cottage offers 1,070 sq ft of characterful living space. The ground floor has a large sitting room with a stone fireplace, kitchen/breakfast room, utility and rear lobby with WC. Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The property includes a garden and useful outbuildings, set in attractive rural countryside with easy access to Alnwick and the Northumberland National Park.
The cottage is Grade II listed; that status preserves historic features but will restrict alterations and can complicate renovations. The house currently needs renovation: walls are likely uninsulated, ceilings are low in places, and services are basic (private water supply, private septic drainage, hot water by immersion). Heating relies on a boiler with anthracite fuel, which may not suit every buyer.
Practical positives include a large overall footprint for a two-bedroom home, fast broadband reported for the area, and a low council tax band. The setting suits buyers who value rural tranquillity, outdoor access and traditional stone character. Note the immediate area is a small hamlet with limited amenities; Alnwick (10 miles) and Thropton (5 miles) provide shops and services.
This property will suit someone seeking a sympathetic renovation project or a downsizer wanting a traditional countryside home with scope to improve. Buyers should factor in listed-building consent, upgrading of insulation and heating, and the private water/sewage arrangements when considering offers.
