Description
East Byer is an exceptional stone built conversion which successfully combines the charm and character of a traditional rural property with a high standard of modern living. Set amidst the beautiful Northumberland countryside near Kirknewton and Wooler, the property enjoys a wonderful sense of peace and privacy, together with attractive views across the surrounding hills.
Thoughtfully converted and finished to a high standard, East Byer offers spacious and versatile accommodation arranged over two floors, with character and charm, in particular the stone floors on the ground floor are a real feature.
The spacious kitchen/breakfast room provides a welcoming heart to the home and is fitted with a quality range of shaker units, complemented by appliances and ample space for a dining table. A useful utility room and cloakroom are conveniently positioned next to the kitchen. The outstanding dual aspect lounge is undoubtedly one of the property's most impressive rooms, featuring attractive arched windows, one incorporating a glazed entrance door and a vaulted ceiling with a mezzanine floor creating an additional and highly versatile area above. The lounge also has a traditional inglenook fireplace with a log-burning stove, providing a beautiful focal point and a cosy setting in which to relax and unwind.
The principal bedroom is located on the ground floor, making the property particularly suitable for family occupation or those seeking accommodation with future flexibility. Two sets of double French doors provide a wonderful connection with the outside, while the bedroom is further enhanced by a stylish and well-appointed en-suite shower room.
There are two staircases in the property, one leading to the mezzanine area overlooking the lounge, which provides an additional reception space and a family bathroom with an adjoining family bathroom. Description cont.....
Decription - The second staircase gives access to the third double bedroom with an en-suite bathroom.
The property benefits from oil central heating and double glazing, ensuring comfort throughout the year.
Outside, East Byer is complemented by substantial gardens and grounds, which extends to approximately 3 acres providing a delightful private setting in which to enjoy the surrounding countryside. The grounds incorporate areas of lawns, a paved patio ideal for outdoor entertaining, a lightly wooded area and generous parking.
The rural surroundings and open countryside views create a genuine feeling of getting away from it all, while the attractive grounds provide plenty of opportunity for outdoor living, gardening and relaxation.
The present owner has successfully operated East Byer as a holiday let, highlighting the property's appeal as a high quality rural retreat and providing an attractive commercial opportunity for a purchaser wishing to continue this use, however, East Byer would make a superb permanent family home or retirement residence. We would highly recommend viewing of this property, contact our Wooler office to arrange an appointment.
