Large secluded four-bedroom home with garage, deck and private woodland plot..
Substantial, secluded plot with mature trees and woodland outlook

Four bedrooms across split levels; flexible family layout

Integral garage, driveway parking for at least four cars
Recently fitted combi boiler; some modern fixtures in kitchen and bathrooms
Council Tax Band F — higher ongoing cost
Slow broadband speeds in the area
Set on a very large, secluded plot with mature trees and a woodland outlook, this split-level four-bedroom detached home suits a family seeking privacy and outdoor space. The raised veranda and decking overlook lawns and a stream crossed by a small bridge — lovely for children and wildlife, but the presence of the stream contributes to a known high flood risk for the site and should be factored into insurance and maintenance costs.
Internally the layout offers flexible family living across two levels: two ground-floor bedrooms, a shower room and utility/laundry room, with two further bedrooms, a family bathroom, fitted kitchen and a spacious triple-aspect lounge/dining room on the upper level. Practical features include an integral garage with internal access, driveway parking for four cars, modern-style windows and a recently fitted combi boiler. Kitchen fittings include integrated Bosch oven, hob and fridge/freezer.
This property is best for buyers wanting rural village life with good road links to Morpeth and the A1; local schools include several well-regarded options. Downsides to note: council tax is band F (expensive), broadband speeds are slow, and the flood risk is high — these are material factors for running costs and insurability. The Energy Performance Certificate is currently to be confirmed.
Overall, the house offers immediate liveability and genuine scope to personalise or update finishes over time. It will particularly appeal to families who prioritise privacy, generous gardens and parking, and who are comfortable managing a property in a countryside setting with the practical implications of the stream and flood risk.
