Elizabeth Humphreys Homes are delighted to welcome to the market this stunning 2 bedroom slate-roofed stone cottage located in the Northumberland village of Powburn. The property benefits from an enclosed courtyard to the front, parking is available opposite the cottage, uPVC windows and doors, electric central heating and all the other usual mains connections. Previously a successful holiday let, this gorgeous property could equally be a main home or a second home. Whichever option chosen, this is a superb property at the foothills of the Cheviots.

Powburn with good access to the A697 allowing for travel to Newcastle and Edinburgh, Powburn is a lovely scenic village with a range of amenities including a village hall, a general store, a well-equipped play area, and an antiques centre. A new Running Fox Cafe is opening alongside The Plough Inn. The neighbouring village of Whittingham hosts a Primary School and a church while all other local facilities are in nearby Rothbury and Alnwick. The nearby town of Wooler provides a good variety of shops and amenities including doctors and the new Ad Gefrin distillery visitors centre.

Entry is via a uPVC door into the kitchen, which has a fully tiled floor with electric underfloor heating and impresses immediately with its glorious exposed-stone wall. There is a window to the front and a window to the rear, with colonial shutters on both, adding charm and character. A good number of wall and base units in a maple-look door with a grey splashback, complemented by a granite-effect work surface, forms the basis of the kitchen fittings. Equipment-wise, there is an under-bench fridge and an under-bench freezer, both of which are fully integrated, a single bowl stainless-steel sink, a four-burner neff induction hob with a stainless-steel splashback beneath a chimney-style extractor fan and glass display doors to either side, a slimline neff dishwasher and a washer-dryer, again both fully integrated, and an eye-level oven with an integrated microwave above. A TV/DVD is combined into the kitchen units and drops down when necessary, and there is further storage within a cupboard ideal for an ironing board and such like. As it is a dining-kitchen, there is ample space to comfortably accommodate a dining table and accompanying chairs.

A wood and glass door opens into a dual-aspect lounge, with a window to the front and rear and a lovely modern wood and metal staircase ascending to the first floor. The large inglenook fireplace, with stone surround housing an impressive multi fuel burner, forms an exquisite focal point. The deep windowsills, perfect for displaying ornaments or photographs, add to the atmosphere of this welcoming and comfortable room. The exposed stone wall and beams are charming and the colonial shutters finish the room perfectly.

Leading from this room is the ground floor bathroom, which is fitted with a fully tiled floor with electric underfloor heating. A window allows for natural light and the suite comprises a close-coupled white toilet with a push button, a high-gloss white vanity unit with a sink on top, and a free-standing claw foot mini-bath with a free-standing chrome shower tap. The space is finished attractively with wet walling.

Taking the stairs to the first floor, the landing, furnished with coir carpeting that extends to the bedrooms, opens to two bedrooms and a shower room.

The primary bedroom has a fully vaulted ceiling with exposed trusses and beams, with two Velux windows to one side and a window with a deep sill to the other. There are two good lockable storage cupboards.

Opposite is bedroom 2 which is another double room showcasing a vaulted ceiling with two Velux windows to one side and a window with a deep sill to the other. Both rooms have exposed stone walls which are a beautiful feature, and both emanate country cottage-style charm.

The shower room, with vinyl-type flooring, wet walling and exposed beams, comprises a wall-hung hand basin, a close-coupled toilet and a quadrant shower cubicle with an electric shower within.

The sunny courtyard to the front, framed by a small picket fence, is an ideal place in which to unwind. There are several raised beds for planting flowers or herbs, which you can enjoy whilst relaxing, and the stone-built barbecue is an attractive and useful feature. This property will realise your dream of escaping to the country.
