East Otterburn Farm

East Otterburn Farm is an impressive five-bedroom stone-built country home, occupying a prominent position within the sought-after village of Otterburn. Combining the character and charm of a traditional farmhouse with generous family accommodation, extensive outbuildings and beautifully maintained gardens, the property offers a rare lifestyle opportunity in the heart of Northumberland.

The accommodation extends to approximately 232 sq m (2,495 sq ft) and is arranged over two floors. A welcoming reception hall provides access to the principal reception rooms. The sitting room is centred around a substantial inglenook fireplace with multi-fuel burner and enjoys views across the front garden, whilst the dining room features a character fireplace, built-in storage and further garden outlooks. To the rear, a cosy snug overlooks the courtyard and benefits from a further inglenook fireplace with multi-fuel burner.

The breakfasting kitchen forms the heart of the home, offering an excellent range of cabinetry, generous worktop space, a large breakfast bar, range-style cooker with gas hob and a feature inglenook fireplace with multi-fuel burner. A separate pantry provides additional storage, whilst a door leads directly to the enclosed courtyard.

A fifth bedroom, currently utilised as a home office, is located on the ground floor and benefits from an adjoining utility room and en suite shower room, providing excellent flexibility for guests or multi-generational living.

On the first floor, a bright landing with large feature window leads to four generous double bedrooms, each with its own en suite shower room and the principal bedroom en suite benefitting from a free-standing bath with views over the valley.

Externally, the property enjoys a large plot of around 0.4 of an acre, with attractive gardens to the front, side and rear. Lawns wrap around the front and side of the farmhouse, whilst to the rear an enclosed courtyard offers an excellent entertaining space. The courtyard also provides access to 2 stables via a post-and-rail pen as well as log store, tack room and hay shed as well as substantial off-street parking. This substantial range of traditional stone outbuildings includes an extensive storage barn providing exceptional versatility for equestrian, hobby or storage purposes.

Beyond, via a stone archway lies a beautifully maintained garden with sweeping pathways, established planting, lawned areas and seating spaces, together with a further garden area situated behind the stable block.

Of particular note, planning permission has been granted for the conversion of the former barn into a two-bedroom bungalow, offering exciting potential for multi-generational living, holiday accommodation or additional income.

In addition, there is an opportunity to purchase a separate parcel of grazing land extending to approximately 1 acre, located a short walk from the property. The land is available by separate negotiation.
