Cavil Head Farm, Acklington, Morpeth

A Stunning Barn Conversion in a Peaceful Setting

Tucked away on the charming Cavil Head Farm development in Acklington, Cowslip is a beautifully presented barn conversion, transformed in 2016 to an exceptional standard and purchased by the current owners as a second home. The property has also been a succesful holiday let, and will appeal to a range of purchasers. Occupying a corner position among just twelve conversions, it enjoys one of the best plots with peace, privacy, and far reaching countryside views.

Do not be deceived by photos of the front, this is a substantial conversion, meticulously maintained. On entering, you’re greeted by the open plan kitchen diner with exposed beams and vaulted ceilings - a theme throughout the property. The granite worktops, and central island are perfect for relaxed dining or entertaining. Oak-framed glass doors lead through to the lounge with a wood burning stove, and a door to the garden, offering stunning views across fields where you may spot the Morwick Dairy cows.

The property is mostly single level, apart from two steps down into the lounge, and the garden along with two steps up into the master suite, which has a private terrace, an ensuite and a walk-in wardrobe. The second and third bedrooms are well proportioned with similar features, in addition to a luxury main bathroom.

Externally, the garden is a true highlight, with a large, enclosed lawn and patio area in addition to the terrace outside the master bedroom. Two parking spaces to the front and two allocated spaces on the development provide convenience for residents and visitors alike. Cowslip is close to the Morwick Ice Cream Dairy, The Railway Inn, Rig & Furrow Farm Brewery and less than ten minutes drive to Warkworth and Amble.
