Ritton White House Farmhouse, Netherwitton, Morpeth, Northumberland, NE61

THE PROPERTY
A pretty farmhouse set within a range of beautiful rural Northumbrian former farm buildings close to Fontburn Reservoir. The farmhouse occupies an elevated site with fabulous rural views over the
surrounding countryside. This stone-built property offers well laid out and practical living space and
comes to the market for the first time, having been let to tenants until recently.

The ground floor has three well-proportioned reception rooms, a kitchen with Aga, boot room,
sunroom, office and cloaks/wc.

To the first floor there are four bedrooms and 3 bathrooms one of which is ensuite.

OUTSIDE
To the south of the property there is a partly walled garden, mainly laid to lawn. The access road to the farm culminates at the farmhouse where there is ample parking. An adjoining paddock extending to approximately 0.56 acres (shaded green on the plan) is available separately if required.

LOCATION
The property occupies an unspoilt rural position at the end of a long farm track within a range of
traditional former farm buildings and cottages. The former farm sits amongst the rolling Northumberland countryside with breathtaking views of the Simonside hills and Fontburn Reservoir. The market town of Rothbury lies approximately 6 miles to the north, with a selection of shops and amenities, including a
convenience store, several independent retailers and a choice of cafes and pubs. The town also has a primary school and a middle school with a first school at the nearby village of Cambo. Further
facilities can be found in Morpeth, approximately 13 miles away including larger supermarkets and a
wider choice of high street and independent shops. This is a truly wonderful setting rich in wildlife. The
area is ideal for walking, cycling and riding with a national park just moments away, while golf is
available at Rothbury Golf Club. Road connections include the A697 and the A1, while Morpeth has a
mainline station, providing services to Newcastle upon Tyne and beyond.

The nearby countryside is home to some of the region's outdoor leisure gems. The rich rural surroundings within Northumberland include Cragside, Brinkburn Priory and Wallington Hall, while some of the country's finest natural beauty spots including the Northumberland National Park and the dramatic Northumberland Coastline, are a short drive away.
