Compact, characterful two-bed cottage ideal for first-time buyers seeking renovation potential.
Traditional stone cottage with exposed beams and wood-burning stove
Two double bedrooms and family bathroom, approximately 836 sq ft
Small courtyard garden; limited outdoor space
On-street parking available with no permit required
Previously successful as an Airbnb — rental potential
Older construction likely without wall insulation (assumed)
Heating via bottled LPG boiler — higher running costs possible
Interior dated in places; cosmetic and energy upgrades likely needed
This traditional stone cottage in Longframlington offers immediate character and a compact, manageable footprint for a first-time buyer. Exposed stone walls, beam ceilings and a wood-burning stove create a cosy living space while the village-centre location places shops, parks and bus links within easy walking distance.
The house provides two double bedrooms, a family bathroom and a light kitchen opening onto a small courtyard garden. At about 836 sq ft, the layout suits those wanting a straightforward home to move into or to personalise over time; the property has previously traded successfully as an Airbnb, demonstrating rental potential.
Buyers should note this is an older building (pre-1900) with traditional sandstone/limestone walls likely lacking modern insulation. Heating is by an LPG boiler and radiators, and bottled LPG can be more expensive and less convenient than mains gas. The interior is dated in places and will benefit from updates; the property may require attention to insulation, glazing and general modernisation.
Practical positives include on-street parking with no permit, low local crime, cheap council tax and good access to the A697 and Morpeth. Broadband and mobile signal are average and the plot is small, so outdoor space is limited. A pre-purchase survey and energy assessment are recommended to clarify insulation, services and running costs before proceeding.
