Palace House

Set on the historic Holy Island of Lindisfarne, this exceptional Grade II listed home combines heritage, character and an extraordinary setting. Believed to date back to the 1500s and said to have been constructed using monastery stone following the Dissolution of the Monasteries, the property enjoys views towards both Lindisfarne Priory and Castle, presenting a rare opportunity to own a piece of history in one of Northumberland’s most atmospheric and sought-after locations.

The ground floor provides a welcoming and sociable layout, perfectly suited to both everyday living and entertaining. A spacious sitting room forms the heart of the home, ideal for relaxed evenings, while a separate dining room offers a more formal space for family meals or hosting guests. The well-proportioned kitchen is conveniently positioned with ample room for cooking and gathering, and a dedicated study offers flexibility for home working or quiet retreat. Practical additions, including an external workshop and laundry room, further enhance the functionality of this level.

The first floor combines comfortable bedroom accommodation with additional living space. A generous drawing room, set in an elevated position, enjoys a wonderful sense of light and outlook, creating an inviting space for reading, relaxing, or entertaining. This floor also features a well-proportioned principal bedroom with en-suite facilities, alongside a further double bedroom served by a family bathroom.

The second floor continues the home’s flexible theme, offering three further bedrooms tucked into the upper level. These rooms are shaped by the roofline and offer distinctive proportions typical of a historic property. This floor is ideal for guest accommodation, children’s rooms, or creative and hobby space, adding to the versatility of this substantial home on Holy Island.

Outside, the property is set within beautiful, established gardens, including a patio area and pond positioned to make the most of the exceptional views towards Lindisfarne Priory. The grounds create a peaceful setting that perfectly complements the surrounding coastal and historic landscape. The rare benefit of off-street parking further enhances the appeal of this unique and characterful home in a truly picturesque location.
