Summary - 5 STATION COTTAGES BELFORD NE70 7DY
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Charming two-bedroom rural home with gardens and parking ideal for starters.
- Two bedrooms, one family bathroom
- Front and rear gardens with decent plot size
- Allocated off-street parking space
- Countryside views; quiet hamlet setting
- Oil-fired boiler and radiators (higher running costs likely)
- Stone walls assumed uninsulated, potential for insulation work
- Very slow broadband despite excellent mobile signal
- Freehold; built before 1900, period character present
This two-bedroom end-terrace cottage sits in a quiet Belford hamlet and offers straightforward rural living for a first-time buyer. The property benefits from front and rear gardens, an allocated off-street parking space and pleasant countryside views — useful outdoor space in a compact package.
Inside, rooms are sensibly laid out with a living room featuring a contemporary fireplace and a practical kitchen and bathroom. The house is presented in good decorative order and can be occupied straightaway, while still offering scope for small cosmetic improvements or energy upgrades to personalise the home.
Important practical points: heating is from an oil-fired boiler and the original sandstone/limestone walls are assumed uninsulated, so running costs may be higher than modern-build homes. Broadband speeds in the area are very slow despite excellent mobile signal; this may affect remote working. The property is freehold, built before 1900, and sits on a decent-sized plot with no flood risk.
This cottage suits buyers seeking a manageable first home or a countryside lifestyle close to local amenities and a good primary school. Be aware of potential improvement needs around insulation and heating efficiency when considering long-term running costs.
