Rochester, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE19

Situated in an enviable elevated site with quite simply stunning and extensive views from many of its windows, this is a substantial three bedroom detached house in a quiet rural location and accessed via a track which helps to ensure its privacy. Additional accommodation is via an attached one bedroom cottage which is currently used as holiday let, but would be most suitable for a dependant relative or incorporating into the main house to create a much larger family home if required by the buyer. Outside there are substantial mature gardens with numerous sitting areas, taking full advantage of the views. The accommodation enjoys the benefit of both double glazing and oil-fired central heating and the house is being sold as a whole property including the cottage as a going concern, or with full vacant possession. This is a rare gem of an opportunity with charm and character and versatility, which would therefore suit not just family use, but single professional couples, active retirement and those seeking to generate additional holiday rental income. This is a rare opportunity and we would strongly recommend an early internal inspection in order to fully appreciate exactly what is on offer.
