Set in 0.75 acres just off the A68, this four-bedroom stone house offers genuine rural living with panoramic views of Northumberland National Park. The house blends traditional character—sash windows, exposed stone and multiple wood-burning stoves—with practical modern upgrades such as solar panels that generate the property’s electricity and provide export income.
Ground-floor living is flexible, with a garden room, generous living areas, a contemporary kitchen with NEFF appliances and a utility. The property has been run as a successful bed & breakfast and includes National Parks permission to operate a food-van/catering provision, offering immediate income potential for an owner-operator or investor.
Important practical points are straightforward: water comes from a private borehole with a filtration system installed about four years ago, and drainage is to a private septic tank which currently does not meet modern regulations. Heating is propane gas with solid fuel stoves; there is an additional back boiler linked to some radiators. Broadband in the area is very slow despite excellent mobile signal.
Outside, the mature landscaped gardens, decked terrace and wood-fired hot tub create a private, leisure-focused setting. Ancillary buildings include a timber garage, log store and shed, with a large gated gravel driveway offering plentiful parking. The property suits buyers seeking a rural lifestyle, an income-generating B&B or a renovation project to enhance value.
