Croft Cottage is a newly renovated two-bedroom period home set on a generous plot overlooking the village green in Midlem. The property offers about 1,442 sq ft of flexible living space across ground and first floors, with three reception rooms that can easily serve as extra bedrooms or home offices. South-facing aspects and triple-aspect windows bring strong daylight and uninterrupted views to the Cheviot Hills.
The house combines traditional character—exposed beams, wood-burning stoves and cottage proportions—with contemporary finishes in the dining-kitchen and two well-appointed bathrooms. A large insulated studio with power sits in the extensive rear gardens, a strong asset for home-working or hobby use. Outdoor space is a standout: paved terrace, laid lawns, specimen and fruit trees, and deep herbaceous borders for gardeners.
Practical positives include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and electric car charging capability. The property is in a remoter, agricultural community and sits within a short drive of larger local centres for shops and services. EPC is rated D and council tax is moderate (Band D).
Buyers should note the socio-economic context: the wider area is classified as very deprived, which may affect local services and long-term demand. Confirm tenure and any specific local service implications before purchase. Ceiling heights in living/dining are lower than modern standards, which may not suit buyers seeking taller, more open-plan spaces.
