Description

A UPVC double glazed porch gives access to the property from the front garden with space for cloaks hanging and boot shelving.

The porch leads through to a vestibule, via a further UPVC lockable door, offering stairs to first floor and a door to the lounge as well as further cloaks hanging space.

The lounge is a spacious room with broad chimney breast housing original open fire with feature stone surround, timber mantle and generous alcoves to both sides. There is a window to the front elevation overlooking the gardens and rural views beyond.

To the rear of the lounge, a door leads through to a further vestibule giving access to a storage cupboard beneath the stairs and small staircase to the kitchen extension.

The kitchen is situated in a separated extension to the rear elevation with two windows allowing plenty of natural light in. This room is a generous size with ample room for dining table and chairs also. Another attractive feature is the log burner housed in the chimney breast with alcoves to both sides.

Ascending the stairs from the front vestibule, the landing offers doors to both the bedroom and the shower room.

The bedroom is a good size offering rural views and ample space for beds and furniture. This room currently houses a double bed and bunk beds as well as dressing table and open clothes hanging rail.

The shower room is fitted with a modern suite of wc, hand wash basin and shower cubicle as well as heated towel rail and frosted window to front elevation.

Externally the cottage offers an elevated front gravelled area, ideal for summer lounging and barbecuing, overlooking the gardens and rural views beyond. The garden and outhouse are situated over the road.

Rochester is a small village in the heart of the Northumberland National Park. Surrounded by green spaces, walks, rural views and with great road links to Newcastle as well as the Scottish Borders, the property would continue to make an ideal holiday let, a perfect first time buy or maybe create a great space to retire into with a south facing paddock garden project to keep those green fingers busy.
