Croft Gate House, Castle Hill, Haltwhistle, Northumberland, NE49

Croft Gate House occupies an elevated position on Castle Hill, offering a detached stone-built home that has been thoughtfully improved and clearly cherished over time. The interior includes a welcoming entrance area, a generous main reception room centred around a Clearview stove, and a well-appointed kitchen/diner opening directly to the rear garden. Two double bedrooms and a contemporary bathroom sit on the first floor, each benefitting from great natural light and open aspects.

A standout feature of the property is the detached garden room, positioned separately from the main house. Designed as a highly adaptable space with its own shower room, insulation, and power, it provides an excellent environment for home working, creative pursuits, guest use, or personal fitness. This additional building adds a valuable layer of flexibility to the overall accommodation. Externally, the property boasts a private driveway with parking for several vehicles, and the surrounding gardens include an elevated, south-facing, patio area that enjoys a great degree of privacy. Together, the house and garden room present a distinctive home in a quiet and desirable part of Haltwhistle.

Haltwhistle is a well-connected small town positioned between the North Pennines and the Tyne Valley, offering a good range of everyday amenities and excellent access to the surrounding countryside. The town centre provides independent shops, cafes and services, along with a supermarket, leisure centre and medical facilities. Schooling is available locally, and the railway station offers direct links east towards Newcastle and west towards Carlisle, making the town a practical base for commuting.

Viewings come highly recommended.

There is the detached garden room, as well as a separate stone outhouse providing useful storage.
