This attractively converted one-bedroom bungalow sits within an historic steading, newly renovated in 2021/22 to a high standard. Vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, oak floors and electric rooflights combine with a shaker kitchen and quality bathroom to deliver characterful, low-maintenance living ideal for someone looking to downsize or buy a peaceful second home.
Externally the property benefits from a south-facing, walled wildflower garden with patio and mature fruit trees, private carport plus an additional parking space. The steading sits within a 1.6-acre shared plot that offers far-reaching views toward Ros Castle and the Till Valley, while fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support modern connectivity despite the rural setting.
Running costs are moderated by underfloor heating fed from an air source heat pump and overall efficient construction (average U-value 0.24 W/m²K). There is no flooding risk and the area records low crime, making the cottage a secure, comfortable option for quieter rural living.
Buyers should note a few material points: the property is one bedroom only, limiting flexibility for larger households; occupiers contribute £60pcm (c.£720pa) for communal grounds and sewage treatment plant maintenance; and a restrictive covenant requires Duke of Northumberland approval for any non-residential use. The steading lies within a Grade II listed curtilage though the cottage itself is not listed.
