A stunning Northumberland country home with additional attached cottage
A handsome Northumberland farmhouse with attached cottage, land and paddock, within easy reach of Belford and Bamburgh Warenton Farm is a charming period farmhouse set within 5.56 acres of gardens and paddock, with an attached cottage offering flexible additional accommodation. The cottage has previously operated as a successful holiday let and could equally suit use as guest or family accommodation, or be incorporated into the main house, subject to consent. The property occupies a peaceful rural setting within easy reach of Belford, with the coastal village of Bamburgh a short drive further on.
Warenton Farm House
The main house is a stone-built period property of three bedrooms, retaining a good deal of character throughout. The sitting room features wooden flooring, a stone-lined fireplace fitted with a log burner, and a south-facing bay window. A second reception room offers a more contemporary space, with a vaulted ceiling, skylights and a stone-built fireplace fitted with a stove. The 23ft open-plan kitchen and dining room provides further flexible living space, with shaker-style units, a stainless steel range cooker, a central island, and an inglenook fireplace in the dining area. Upstairs, three double bedrooms include a generous principal bedroom with built-in storage, served by a family bathroom with a roll-top bath and separate shower.
Warenton Cottage
The attached cottage can be accessed either independently or via the main house. At lower ground floor level it comprises a kitchen with fitted units and space for appliances, retaining its original cast-iron range and bread oven, together with a double bedroom and bathroom. The ground floor sitting room has wooden flooring and an original stone fireplace, while a second bedroom on the upper floor features an exposed stone wall, brick chimney breast and painted beams. The cottage has been successfully let as holiday accommodation in the past and offers a ready-made income opportunity for a buyer who does not require the additional space full time.
This property has 5.56 acres of land.
Outside
The gardens sit predominantly to the front of the house, taking advantage of a southerly aspect, with a paved patio adjacent to the lane and a gravel driveway providing private parking and access to a detached garage or stable. The grounds include rolling lawns, a pond, mature trees and hedgerows, well-stocked flower beds, a vegetable garden with raised beds and a greenhouse, and a summer house with its own terrace. A timber-framed stable block and five-bar gates give access to the paddock of 5.1 acres, suited to equestrian use. In total the gardens and paddock extend to approximately 5.56 acres.
Situation
Warenton Farm is set in quiet countryside a short distance from Belford, which provides everyday shops, pubs and schooling, with the coastal village of Bamburgh a little further on for its beach, castle and restaurants. Alnwick and Berwick-upon-Tweed offer more comprehensive facilities, including supermarkets and leisure centres. The A1 is close by for road travel in both directions, Berwick-upon-Tweed station provides direct rail links to London King's Cross and Edinburgh Waverley, and Newcastle International Airport is within comfortable reach.
