Acklington, Morpeth, NE65

The wider Bank House Farm complex includes Grade II listed agricultural buildings — most notably the early 19th-century cartshed and granary with attached cottages — recognised for their architectural and historical significance. Together, they stand as a reminder of Northumberland’s working-estate past and distinctive stone vernacular.

Arranged over three storeys and constructed in dressed stone, this charming conversion blends character detail with a practical layout ideal for modern family life. The ground floor features a welcoming living and dining space that flows into a country-style kitchen with direct access to the rear garden, while a practical WC completes this level. The first floor offers two versatile rooms that can serve as a sitting room, snug, office or third bedroom as required. To the second floor, there are two further bedrooms served by a modern family bathroom.

Externally, the property enjoys a private rear garden overlooking an established orchard — a tranquil space to appreciate the surrounding countryside and Northumberland’s renowned dark skies. To the front, there is driveway parking and a nearby garage providing valuable storage and everyday convenience.

The setting is wonderfully peaceful, yet conveniently located close to the Coquet Valley and Northumberland’s Heritage Coast. Everyday amenities can be found in the nearby towns of Amble and Warkworth, both offering a wealth of character, riverside walks, historic landmarks and independent shops, with wider services in Alnwick and Morpeth.

Acklington benefits from its own railway station providing local services and just a short drive away is Alnmouth Station which provides direct services on the East Coast Main Line to Edinburgh and London Kings Cross. The A1 is within easy reach for regional and national travel.

This Grade II listed stone-built barn conversion offers approximately 1,000 sq ft of flexible living accommodation, combining period character with modern comfort. With its orchard outlook, private garden ideal for alfresco dining and stargazing, garage, driveway parking, and easy access to the coast and surrounding countryside, Bank House Farm presents a rare opportunity to acquire a home of both charm and heritage in one of Northumberland’s most picturesque rural settings.
