"A hugely appealing traditional cottage situated in a beautiful countryside village"

The Property
Village Farm Cottage is a gorgeous traditional Northumberland country cottage with a host of charm and character. The property is tucked away in a quiet position on the edge of the idyllic Tyne Valley village of Fourstones and offers three bedroom accommodation with wraparound private gardens.

A pathway from the front gate approaches the attractive entrance vestibule. There are two substantial reception rooms either side of the hall; the welcoming sitting room and the splendid dining room. Both rooms have a wonderful atmosphere of tradition and warmth, characterised by exposed wooden ceiling beams and elegant fireplaces. A door from the dining room leads to the country style kitchen with a range of wooden cabinetry, practical tiled flooring and a grand AGA set within an inglenook. Views look over the rear gardens. The kitchen is further served by a utility room with WC off and a pantry which are both accessed off the adjoining boot room. There is also a large workshop which could be configured for a variety of uses, depending on individual requirements.

Stairs leads up from the hall then branch left and right to all of the bedroom accommodation. The principal bedroom is an expansive double with a lovely dual aspect, a feature fireplace and excellent fitted storage. There is a shower room adjacent to this bedroom with the rooms combining to form a suite at this end of the house. There are two further bedrooms which are served by a bathroom and a separate WC.

Externally
Village Farm Cottage is situated in a quiet location on the edge of a small village with beautiful countryside all around. Pleasant and private gardens wrap around the cottage, with most of the gardens sitting to the west and north. There are mature plantings, shrubs and trees with paved footpaths leading around the gardens. Tucked in the top corner of the garden is a summerhouse to relax in peace and tranquillity.

A path from the boot room door leads to the detached double garage. The stone-built garage offers great convenience and there is additional parking space available in front.
