A period house with 2 reception room as well as a large kitchen / dining / family room, pantry, shower room and a utility / boot room on the ground floor with the half landing to the first floor also having a doorway leading out into the garden. The first floor of the house has two equally impressive master bedrooms with built in wardrobe space and a family bathroom, then on up to the second floor with two further double bedrooms with dormer windows with outstanding views towards the Cheviot Hill and an eaves storage cupboard. The property has partial double glazing and gas central heating and is offered in walk-in condition.
