Accommodation in Brief Entrance Vestibule Kitchen/Breakfast Room Sitting Room Conservatory Ground Floor Bedroom Utility Room/WC Principal Bedroom Third Bedroom Bathroom Parking Lawn Gravelled Seating Areas Stable Paddock Adjoining Holiday Caravan Plot The Property Elpha Green Cottage North is an appealing stone-built property converted from a former traditional longhouse. This semi-detached cottage occupies a spectacular rural location surrounded by glorious unspoiled countryside that stretches away in every direction. Gardens, a generous paddock and the adjoining serviced holiday caravan plot add further possibilities and will appeal to outdoor enthusiasts. The attractive traditional exterior of Elpha Green Cottage North is matched by wonderfully elegant interior decor, blending the charm and character of an original country cottage with high quality contemporary finishes. The entrance vestibule and hall lead through into a smart kitchen/breakfast room with modern units in a traditional shaker-style blended with exposed ceiling beams, solid wood worktops and wood flooring to retain the country feel. The space under the stairs has been cleverly utilised to create storage cupboards with doors to match the kitchen units and the sale is inclusive of a full suite of modern built-in appliances. The breakfast area at the end of the kitchen has space for a table and chairs with views through the French doors over a gravelled seating area to the gardens and beyond. The sitting room is warm and inviting with the traditional stone fireplace housing a woodburning stove. Lovely wooden beams cross the ceiling and the open access directly into the conservatory floods the room with light. The conservatory overlooks the valley to offer a breathtaking panoramic view. There is cosy underfloor heating, along with ample space for seating plus a large dining table and chairs, making the conservatory a year-round living space. The ground floor double bedroom has built-in wardrobes/storage and French doors leading out to an enclosed breakfast patio, providing great flexibility as a bedroom, home office, play room, hobby room or for a host of other uses, depending on individual requirements. The ground floor is completed by a very nicely presented utility room complete with a WC and a Belfast double sink, ideal for servicing the downstairs bedroom. There is also space for both a washing machine and tumble dryer. Upstairs, the relaxing principal bedroom has built-in wardrobes, double windows and a characterful beam running across the ceiling. The third bedroom is dual aspect and is currently used as a home office. All of the rooms upstairs benefit from the sweeping views and an abundance of light, including the very spacious bathroom that has a luxurious feel and is very well-appointed with a bath, separate walk-in shower, wash hand basin set on a vanity unit and WC. Full planning permission was granted in 2011 to extend the property to create a more substantial four bedroom dwelling. These development plans were not progressed and have since lapsed, but interested parties may wish to investigate re-applying. Externally Elpha Green Cottage North sits amongst magnificent Northumberland countryside in pretty private gardens and with the added benefit of a generous paddock shared with the adjoining property. Half of the paddock is part of the Elpha Green Cottage North property but, subject to agreement with the owners of the adjoining property, the full paddock may be available for grazing. A wooden stable/field shelter within a fenced yard combines with the paddock to offer a perfect compact equestrian set up. The stable could also offer various possibilities depending on the requirements of the new owner. The well-kept lawn and gravelled seating areas surrounded by traditional drystone walls make the most of the sensational views. To the rear of the property is a large wood store/cycle shed and stone-built workshop. Adjoining the property to the north west is a fully serviced two bedroom holiday caravan set within its own dedicated plot and providing useful additional temporary/holiday accommodation or another area with exciting development possibilities. Agents Note Elpha Green Cottage North shares water and drainage services with the semi-detached cottage next door together with useful amenities such as an emergency generator capable of supplying off-grid electricity to both properties in the event of a winter power outage. A service agreement is in place which divides the costs of these services fairly.
