"A characterful barn conversion with far-reaching views in a rural yet convenient location "

The Property
Set within a small and well-kept courtyard development just west of Hexham, Oak Ridge Barn is a thoughtfully converted former agricultural building with a quiet sense of presence and charm. The house is one of only four properties in this discreet cluster and enjoys an enviable corner position, with open views across the Tyne Valley and a garden that wraps neatly around the southern and western elevations.

Inside, the accommodation is bright and well-arranged, with natural light and countryside views drawn in through arched French doors and tall windows. The layout flows in an L-shape from the hallway, with the sitting room to one side—an elegant space finished with a wood-burning stove, exposed ceiling beams, and oak flooring underfoot. From here, the room opens through to the kitchen and dining area, where a central island sits beneath a bank of beamed skylights and painted cabinetry wraps the walls. The kitchen is well appointed with a marble countertop, Miele touch-control hob and extractor, SMEG double oven, Neff dishwasher, and integrated appliances by Neff and AEG.

Beyond, a casual sitting/dining space by the glazed garden doors is brightly lit and includes further bespoke cabinetry—offering a relaxed and sociable setting with easy access to the garden beyond.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom sits to the western end of the house and includes an en-suite shower room, recently fitted with a rainfall shower by Serenity Bathrooms. Three further bedrooms are arranged along the landing, each with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and views across open countryside. A newly fitted family bathroom, also by Serenity, features shaker-style cabinetry, patterned tiled flooring, a rainfall shower, and a skylight overhead.

Externally
The garden lies predominantly to the rear and catches the evening sun, with lawned areas bordered by hedging, a paved patio for outdoor dining, and uninterrupted views across open countryside—one of the property’s most striking features. A stone-built outbuilding provides useful external storage, and a gravel driveway offers parking for two vehicles behind a timber five-bar gate. Additional visitor parking is available in the shared courtyard.
