The Property
The Old Granary is a beautiful barn conversion situated on the outskirts of Corbridge, with exquisite gardens and far-reaching views across the Tyne Valley. Dating from the pre-Georgian period, this semi-detached home—linked only at a discreet point—offers the rare combination of architectural charm and practical, generous living space. The property enjoys a peaceful position in one of Northumberland’s most sought-after locations, with direct access to scenic walks, and the vibrant village of Corbridge just moments away.

The house unfolds from a welcoming hallway, where limestone flooring and painted beams set the tone for the characterful interiors throughout. There are three elegant reception rooms, each with a distinct feel. The drawing room is particularly inviting, with its finely carved wooden fireplace and French doors opening to the garden. A separate sitting room offers a more informal retreat, beneath a striking vaulted ceiling with exposed trusses, while the dining room, accessed via glazed double doors, delivers a more intimate atmosphere with its rich, traditional décor and low beams.

At the centre of the house lies the kitchen/breakfast room, an impressive space fitted with bespoke cabinetry and elegant marble worktops. A central island offers additional storage and houses a wine cooler. A traditional AGA is set within a tiled inglenook fireplace, forming a warm and characterful focal point, while other integrated appliances are seamlessly incorporated into the classic design. A large arched window, set into the original barn opening, allows natural light to flood the space, enhancing the room’s welcoming atmosphere. Just off the kitchen is a well-appointed utility room with pantry cupboard and access to the double garage.

Also on the ground floor is a study with bespoke fitted furniture, offering an ideal setting for home working and a cloakroom/WC.

Upstairs, the four bedrooms are arranged across two wings, offering flexibility for family life or visiting guests. The principal suite is set apart from the rest of the accommodation and includes a spacious bedroom, a walk-through dressing area with extensive fitted wardrobes, and a generous en-suite. Another double bedroom also enjoys en-suite facilities with both a luxurious double-ended tub and separate shower, while the remaining two share a beautifully appointed family bathroom. A boarded loft space offers further potential storage.

Externally
The gardens at The Old Granary are a defining feature of the property, thoughtfully landscaped to offer colour, privacy and far-reaching views. Both front and rear gardens are fully enclosed by a stone wall, creating a secure and sheltered setting.

The south-west facing garden to the front is beautifully planted, with a generous lawn bordered by mature trees, flowering shrubs and neatly clipped hedging—ideal for catching the afternoon and evening sun. To the rear, the more sheltered north-east facing garden offers a peaceful spot for a morning coffee, framed by climbing plants and established borders creating a quiet, leafy retreat. Two sheds sit discreetly within the grounds—one used for log storage, the other for gardening tools and outdoor equipment. A gravelled driveway leads to the integral double garage and provides ample parking, all discreetly screened from the lane by stone walls and hedging.
