A truly stunning, two-bedroom stone-built period cottage, beautifully nestled within the scenic rural village of Whittingham. Offered for sale with no onward chain, this charming home seamlessly blends traditional character with contemporary comforts, making it a perfect retreat in a picturesque countryside setting.
The recently refurbished accommodation is both spacious and thoughtfully arranged. At the heart of the home is a beautifully presented lounge, featuring a striking inglenook-style fireplace with a recess housing a multi-fuel stove, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Adjacent to the lounge is a fabulous open-plan kitchen and dining area, designed with both style and practicality in mind. The kitchen is fitted with a modern range of units, complete with space to accommodate a range style oven, while the underfloor heating adds a touch of luxury and comfort. Access to the property is direct into the kitchen which has entrance doors to both the front and rear aspects.
A central staircase provides access to the attic space.
On the ground floor, the property boasts two generous double bedrooms, one of which features a stylishly appointed en-suite shower room. The accommodation is further complemented by a stunning family bathroom, equipped with a double shower enclosure, a low-level WC, and a hand wash basin set into a practical vanity storage unit.
Externally, the property continues to impress with a beautifully landscaped country garden, complete with a paved patio seating area, gravelled sections, and carefully planted shrubs and bushes. Off-street parking is available for multiple cars, and a spacious outbuilding to the rear provides versatile space for storage or hobbies. The property further benefits from access to the rear.
The property enjoys a superb village location, within walking distance of the historic Pele Tower, the local church, and Whittingham First School. Additional amenities are available nearby in the villages of Glanton and Powburn, while further shops, services, and leisure facilities can be found in Rothbury and Alnwick, the latter of which is approximately 7.5 miles away.
Situated amidst rolling countryside, yet with excellent road links via the A697, the cottage offers both tranquillity and accessibility, providing commuter connections to Newcastle and the Scottish Borders.
This exceptional home offers a rare combination of character, space, and location, a true must-see for anyone seeking a countryside retreat.
